I believe the whole process could take 1 week or more. Make sure that after the eyes clear that the humidity is up high enough. (This time of year the humidity in my area is way down) I do this by misting the enclosure a couple times a day. If the humidity is too low, they can sometimes have a bad shed. It will come off in pieces. Wait to you see how beautiful your corn looks after a shed. This is when their colors are the brightest.
