Hi. I've only had my snake just over 1 month now. Purchased 23rd fed He's fed every 5 days 1 pinkie
My query is he shed on 04/03 and exactly 1 month later he looks like he's going to shed again.. Is this normal?
I saw another persons post about 4wk shed but just wondered because my snake is a lot younger
Thank you

Yes, sounds perfectly fine to me, they shed more often when they are younger. As they grow they will shed less frequently. Just make sure all of your tempretures are correct and im sure it will all be fine.

The younger they are the more often they shed because of growing quickly.
It's perfectly normal.
