Hi guys hope your all well I'd like to just confirm something if I may I checked on Cerberus today and he's in blue so should I start to increase his humidity by srarying now or after he goes clear again, also he's only done one poo in nearly three weeks so with him preparing to shed can I expect another anytime soon? thanks for your help guys

Hi, good luck with his shed - usually it's something they manage pretty well by themselves. Until he goes clear he's 'waterproof'; humidity doesn't affect him, but when he does clear, it's a good idea to give him a damp hide and to put his water bowl in the hot end (extra evaporation, gently increases humidity.)
Some people spray the sides of the viv to up humidity; it's a debatable point; I never have and have now got a scruffy shedder (Shahi) shedding well just with the damp hide/water bowl in hot end. Spraying the snake can stress it; again there are varying views on this. I don't, personally.
And, yup, he will probably take a BIG DUMP when he sheds - royals seem to be very proud of doing this lol.
