No shed?

Langi Oct 10, 2003 10:09 PM

I have approx. five month leo. I got him at about two months old. The thing is that I haven't noticed him shed at all. Ever. I know that leos eat their skin, could he have just done that and I never noticed him shed? He has dulled and spent time in his humid hide. He eats well every night and there doesn't seem to be anything else wrong with him, any ideas?

have you ever seen him with the ghostly look? like, he became lighter / more white - but the next day it was gone? if you've seen that, he probably shed in his humid hide during the night while you were sleeping... they eat their shedding skin so you won't see any lying around the terrarium. are there any left over skin on his toes? if there is, that's another sign that he has shed already~
