anybody experience long durations between sheds?

cutlass1972 Jul 31, 2003 09:33 AM

My Borneo has gone about 4 months without shedding, her groth has seemed fairly constant throughout this time period. She has only shed twice in the 8 /- months that I have had her but she has probibly trippled in size. Any thoughts? I am not terribly worried about it yet as she seems perfectly healthy in all other regards.

4 months does seem a tad long, but if it appears healthy and is not showing any signs of illness (which probably not, as most snakes "shed" when ill) then i wouldn't really worry about it and just keep an eye on the duration between sheds and perhaps it will be useful information to someone in the future on these forums.
