My cali king has already shed once this month. But I'm sure I can see another film developing. She's a CB11.

Is it possible she could be shedding again this month? I have not seen her go blue yet.

My corn sheds rarely, but he shed one day after her.

Snakes never follow the rules Ashely....and will always do the unexpected to keep us on our toes . It may be that your Cali had an injury/scale issue that you weren't aware of so she's shedding sooner than expected to deal with it....or it could be that she has had a growth spurt, maybe you've recently increased her prey size....or it could be she's just doing it because she needs to do it .

Hope that helps .

My Florida has just had its third shed in 7 weeks. I didn't see any signs of blue for the last two. I just got up and found two perfect sheds.

They will do it when it suits them.

They shed frequant from young getting not as frequent as they grow. But even as adults things like scale damage an injuries will cause them to shed more frequently. As said they shed when they need.
