skin then they shed, has nothing to do with any set time limit, just how much and fast they grow. All are different, grow and eat at different rates. I have some who went through a growth spurt and shed about 3 or 4 times during the summer. Oh and usually their colors get nicer each time also. Eve

I would say once every two weeks. That's about how often mine seem to do it.
