    We used to see them at the vet clinic I used to work at. If there are areas on his body that isn't shedding you can take a q-tip dip it in mineral oil and gently apply it to the shedding skin and roll the q-tip along the skin to help it come off. You could also try setting him in some warm water to help soak it off. Make sure your supplementing the diet with calcium and a vitamin powder. Also make sure your uv bulbs are not old and are at the proper level in the inclosure to maximize calcium absorbtion. If he has sores around the mouth he could have mouth rot, we used to see snakes with this. Usually required antibiotics. Hope that helps:)
