Hi guys yet again I am needing advice lol, The problem is that my royal was in shed around a week and a half ago. She showed the singes like pink belly and blue eyes. 4 days ago her eyes cleared up so I upped the humidity and just waited for her to shed. But I have not seen any of her skin lying around in her RUB and she looks a little more colorful and her eyes are shinny Could she have ate her skin at-all? Sorry for asking more questions but i am puzzled lol

not that ive ever heard of mate. they tend to look like they have shed when they clear up.
just a thought, have a real good search around the viv an in the hides(you may have already done this) because my little one frank tends to shed in his hide an leave it in a little ball like this
