What sort of hide spots do you have for it? These guys usually are rather secretive and stress out if they cant feel safely out of view. I usually placed cut branches of leafy bamboo in as well to give them additional cover that they seemed to appreciate. Also be sure to provide a water container they can stretch out in. As for the flooring it will give them something to dig around in. That will come trust on that! What temps are the basking sites and what's the humidity of the enclosure? As for the shedding don't worry just yet. How often are you feeding it? Young.monitors in proper settings should be eating at least once a day. If the temps are right they will metabolize the food quickly and grow like weeds. If not they get fat and unhealthy. Vitamin and calcium supplements are important as well. Hope this helps! Guy
