shedding problem

well this is embarrassing.....*hides face*
ive had my bp jeri for 3 years now and ive had this problem since I first got her
shes never shed in one full piece, it usually takes weeks for her to fully shed,but she does get it done
ive built a humidity chamber, but little margerine containers with water in them at both ends, given her baths frequently but there is still a piece of skin from her neck to her head and covering one eye
what else can I do for her, i feel like a bad owner and want to fix the problem as soon as I can
my corn baybe shed for the first time about a week or two ago in a nice full piece, then again theyre not tropical

Its no big deal. the simplest thing is,... as soon as the skin starts coming off place a wet towel and the snake in a wet pillowcase, tie the end and leave the whole thing in the enclosure overnight. The moisture combined with the snake moving around in the towel will enable the skin to come off.
