my ball shed in one piece about 3 months ago but today he shed in pieces.. they came off cleanly but not in one piece..is there something wrong or is this sometimes normal

the temp is kept at 86 - 90 F day and 80 - 85 F night the humidity stays at about 50 - 55% and he has a large water dish ...

Maybe a little low on humidity side.

When I first rescued mine, it took months to get them to shed cleanly, even if it was in pieces.
