How long after hatching does a baby shed??? >>>

Cleopatra Jul 23, 2003 03:14 PM

i checked this morning and there was no signs of hatching so she must have just hatched within the last 2 hours (my she was fast!). i would like to move her into the hatchling tank as soon as she sheds because she will have more room, hides, water, and a variety of temps at her disposal. thanks!

Mine shed on the 5th day but I think it can go anywhere from 3 days to 8. I'm not 100% on that though.

It's usually around a week give or take a few days.

Congrats on the little one. Mine usually shed after about 3-5 days. Usually. Sometimes a little longer so don't freak out if it takes her a week or so.
