How often are they supposed to shed?

How often do you guys yearling ATBs shed? Aren't they supposed to shed frequently when they are young? My ATB sheds every 3-4 weeks. I've had her since April; she was born last November.

Mine is the same age and sheds approximately every 5-6 weeks. She eats on a 10-day cycle so if your snake is on a 7-day cycle then that could explain the difference.
