Hisser molting

bm1957 Apr 30, 2005 06:11 PM

I got the impression that it took a while for hissers to go through there complete molts to become adults.(6-7 molts which takes 6 months to a year) My hissers were born on March 30th, and started there 1st molt April 13th, and there 2nd molt April 28th. Are they just happy hissers, or is the unusual? Im just surprised how quick they are molting. Thanks, B. Mitchell

Molting can be affected by: temperatures, food availability, humidity and light may inhibit growth rates.
