My baby ball has started a shed. I haven't fed her since her eyes glazed over, have provided less light and more privacy, decreased handling (significantly), and provided increased humidity and plenty of rubbing surfaces. I have even caught her at night rubbing her face all over the walls and rocks in her viv. Last night I thought for sure she would have shed, but this morning, nothing. It has been a couple of weeks since she has eaten, and she's gotta be hungry. Should I feed her, or still wait? Is there anything else I can do or provider her to help her with the shed?

i had same problem as you..my BP took so long to shed everytime i thought something was wrong..as long as your doing everything like you said you are, you'll be fine.. with the rubbing the nose, it is trying to begin the shed..give it couple more days.. 2 weeks without food isnt nothing to worry about..
