Snake having problems shedding its skin?

Every now and again I hear of a snake that has had a problem shedding its skin. This is surprising as it is something very easy to solve with the use of a humid hide, which is basically a hide with damp moss inside. The snake will seek the humidity of the hide when it needs it. This is a safer option than making the whole vivarium humid, as this can cause respiratory problems if you get it wrong.
The humid hide is great for species like corn snakes, kings and milks. But isn’t so good for species such as Green Tree Pythons which are a more delicate species that require higher humidity all the time.
