The scales look black in the pic-- I have someone else looking at them I am not sure--- in the meantime I would replace the substrate in the tank w/ something that is not loose --- reason being the most is loose substrate is harder to clean and it harbors bacteria and the next it is a good risk for impaction --- if you need ideas for substrate please let me know I can give you some --

She is in a bioactive tank. She had been in one for over 1.5 years. The green is coming off with her shed. You really can't see thr green bc of the lighting in her tank.

Honestly whenever my snakes would shed the skin that was sloughing off looked yellowish like it does in your pictures but I’ve never seen green. When my Beardie sheds it’s never in large pieces so it’s hard for me to tell. But the juicier and larger the skin that comes off the more yellow it looks. I think it’s the liquid layer in between the two sets of skin - active and dead. I can’t see green in your picture though. Did it disappear with the shed or is it on the new layer, too?

I had some one look at her and this is what they said
Wait until the shed is done, can't see clearly what the surrounding area looks like to compare.
