Hasn't shed ...

I didn't feed my Opal last Sunday the 18th because I noticed that he was hiding a lot=about to shed. From Tuesday-Thursday he went pink, and stayed at the top of his tank even when I provided a humidity hide with wet paper towels on the floor of the box. I always sprayed his tank so that the top humidity ( where he "hangs out" is mid 60s and the bottom is (47-55). Since Thursday night or Friday his eyes cleared up but he hasn't shed yet is there something I can do to at all to help, or am I doing something wrong? I am also at school where the weather has been nice or rainy or chilly, but my since I live in a townhouse on campus I can regulate the temp of the house which is usually upper 70s and the heat rises upstairs to have a toasty/ comfortable feel
 
All you have to do is wait! They can take several days to shed after they clear up/come out of the blue stage.
 
After they clear up it usually takes 3 or 4 days to shed. It will happen soon. Leave the damp paper towels in there just in case he needs them.
 
I wouldn't worry. I had one snake that took her own sweet time taking that old skin off. She was in her clear stage for almost a week before she decided it was time. Just be patient! :)
