Shedding can be growth related....



or...



It could indicate stress, this stress could be caused by an illness, inadequate caging, wrong environment, and mites. Normally mites causing this problem will be seen on the snake, but it is possible to miss them if you don't look....



Good luck, and pay attention to all husbandry practices and adjust as necessary.
