I got Indra on Sunday and she seemed tiny. But, yesterday she was moving around her viv and she was longer than the longest side of her viv. The longest side is around 1 foot 3 inches.
So I thought, "Oh she has shed". But I couldn't find the shed skin anywhere. She is definitely longer then when I first got her. She's 3 months old (Almost 4 months).
Can Snakes grow with out shedding?
I know it sounds like a stupid question, but she is definitely longer then when I 1st got her.  |

I've had my corn 12 weeks. Its shed once on 10th Sept. But it has grown 3in in those 12 weeks. 1in since its shed.
But growing that fast in 4/5days? Its prob because she's more comfortable in her surroundings and is stretching out more than you have seen her do and thats why you think she looks longer? |

Yes...my understanding is that it is the growing that (partially) causes them to shed...so that they can essentially "fit" into their new skin, once they outgrow the old one. It is amazing how quickly they can seem to grow! |
