Probably worring a bit too much here.

I got little Dakota on 9th April at 12 weeks old. She's now 5 months old, feeding well, pooing, drinking and generally doing well however, she has not shed for me yet.

A week ago on Tues I did notice her colour was slightly blue but that was it and her colour clear, not dulling of the eye caps or her going really blue nor has she been in her water bowl, well not that I've seen. She's currently on 2 pinkies per feed and her temps are 28.5/29.5*C warm end and cool end is just room temp.

Lister shed yesterday, and his last shed was on the 15th of march! Some snakes just don't shed too often, others love to do it haha!

Its nowt to worry about. I wouldn't be surprised if you have a nice shiny snake soon.

I may have missed that Louise your right and she shed perfectly on 6th April, an intact shed with eye caps and tail tip.

I have read that sometimes it takes some corns 8 days + after the blue period to shed. Im sure she will shed in her own time Do you have shedding records from the reptile shop? xxx

You may well have missed her eyes clouding over.

Just wait. It's not like shed can refuse to shed. She will do it when ready and this can be quite a few days after they look normal again.

Have a look at my thread...
