Hi I'm new. My dad bought me my corn, Ernie for my 21st. I've had him for two and a half months, he's almost ten months old and I got him from a breeder. I'm concerned that he hasn't shed his skin while I've had him. He's really perky, loves dossing about in my dressing gown sleeves and pockets, feeds brilliantly.

heya and welcome
they shed more frequently when they're young and growing quickly, and the faster they grow the more frequently they shed. what are you feeding him? if he's on more of a maintenance diet he'll shed les often.

He's grown a lot since I got him. I'd say at least a good three inches. He is having a pinky every 4-5 days.

a pinky? he could well be very hungry! try feeding him 2 pinkies per feed then move up to fuzzies.
the feeding pattern will probably account for him not having shed yet.

a pinkie for a 10 month old?
I would try 2 pinkies on his next feed.
And then gradually move up to a fuzzie
