My daughter had Voldemort out for 10 minutes, and he was rubbing his head on her hands & jumper. She thought he was a bit odd so put him back in his tank. Within seconds he'd shed and we missed it! Couldn't believe how fast it happened, and his full skin all round the tank..everyone thinks the skin is creepy except me, looks amazing, you can see where the eyes have been and everything He only went blue on Monday, eyes cleared on Thursday and shed today...didn't expect it quite so soon

It occurs really quickly after their eyes clear! I always get bored waiting on Vin as he goes into hiding about 2 weeks before his eyes cloud, shedding makes him moody! Glad you got a perfect shed!

shame you missed it, that was quick for a shed, harry's just shed after 7 days in blue and 3 days from his eyes clearing up, he didn't want to get naked in front of us this time though

I'll be ready for it next time. Didn't expect it to happen so quickly. She locked the tank and came down to tell me about his weird behaviour,I ran up to have a look and it was all done..she couldn't believe it either, big poop in the tank too, so she's lucky she missed that
