Only time I ever have a problem with shells sticking is if the shrimp are super fresh, right off the boat and havent been iced hard for at least a couple hours. Other than that, boil till the float, shut off fire and soak them till sink.

The key difference in boiling shrimp vs boiling crawfish or crabs is that with shrimp you can’t add salt until they’re near the end. The salt causes them to swell when they cook and it makes the shells stick to the meat
