Dull skin and cloudy eyes in a snake are typically signs that your pet is preparing to shed its skin. This is a normal physiological process, as snakes shed their outer layer of skin periodically. During this 'blue phase,' they may become more irritable, less active, and refuse food. Ensure proper humidity in their enclosure to facilitate a smooth shed. Most healthy snakes shed without issue, but if the shed is incomplete or stuck, it could indicate husbandry problems. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
