shedding problems aids

It doesnt have to be due to inbreeding, although inbreeding could definetly exacerbate the problem. I also agree with cav in that 99.999% of bad sheds will be due to husbandry issues but every now and again i think there will be a snake (not necessarily blubeards snake) that will be due to genetics. In the wild a snake with shedding problems will most definetly die. In captivity we are able to help them thru this stressful period so they are able to mature, mate and pass the bad gene on.
 
ok i picked up a humidity meter, today, to make sure what it was, i had it up to 40 at one point this after nnon but its back down around 30 right now, i had her in her humid hide this afternnoon, i got back form the bar tonight, drunk as a skunk, and she has started to shed, she was out climbing on her vines, but it looks like she's having the same problem ad last time, due to the fact that i shouldn't be haddleingher, i'm going to see if i can coxes her into her humid hide befor i go to bed, when i get up in the morninging i'm going to check on her if she hasn't shed completly. we may find out if this shed aid works well or not.
