Hi All,
New around here and I had a question I wanted to ask. How often/many times per year will an adult female Cal King shed? Please let me know.

hello and welcome to the Forum.

a snake that has a regular feeding schedule should shed at least once a month.

Shedding depends on feeding....The more you feed the more they will shed.
When a snake is in its first few years (growing years) it will shed more numerous than when it is near full grown.

My hatchling/yearlings shed about once a month, but my Huge 69 inch Brooksi sheds around 5 times a year........

Hope this helps as there is no set number,
John Lassiter
