Default Molting?

I think my BL is molting but what to make sure so I added some pics. How long does it take to molt? I know I leave the shell in for him to eat. I sure hope it's just a molt. Look in the corner. Any tips on molting would be appreciated.

I covered him up with a shell so the others don't disturb him.

-Leave the shell for him to eat but remove it after a few days if he has not finished eating it cause it will start to rot.
-Make sure there are plenty of hiding places cause it will feel vulnerable after molting.
-Try not to disturb him as it will stress him greatly, especially in his current state

Thanks for the tip, I will do all of that. There are a lot of hiding spots for him.
