Baby corn shedding?

i want to know how long intil my baby corn starts shedding his eyes have been blue for at least a day and a half so when should i start seeing signs of shedding
Answers:
Very soon. Expect his shed in a few days.
It can be up to a week. Usually the eyes change back right before...though not always. You'll probably just wake up one day and find the skin lying about the cage somewhere. ^^ Quite cool, no?
Just don't handle him while he's going through this. They get REALLY pissy. It's like snake PMS or something. LOL
Dont touch it as they cant see so everything is a threat, Also make sure the end of the tail skin is shed as if it dosnt come off it will cut the blood off and it will die and go black and fall off.
soon enough
Usually they stay blue for 2-3 days, then clear, then shed. So within a week they should shed for you. I would mist the enclosure once a day until shed, or provide a moist hide for your baby to give it a higher humidity.
