I have noticed the exact same thing... I have a female that has litterally increased her size 4x in the last couple months and she has only shed once. I also have 4 other baby hogs that all eat well and they have not shed in the last couple months at all.

I've had mine for two years and I think I can count on one hand the number of times he's shed. I guess that's just hogs. You'd think they'd be popping out of their skins!
(Strangely, though, once he shed twice in rapid succession. Never figured that one out either.)
