when they are younger as they are growing so much faster they usually shed in a 5-6week cycle but when they are older i think they only shed a few times a year,
someone who knows more about the shedding pattern when older will probably be able to help you more than i can though  |

| all my adults shed about 3-4 times a year too, my males shed less frequently than my females as the girls go though more drastic bodily changes with breeding, being gravid and laying......... |

Kellog sounds pretty similar in size and weight to your snake. He sheds every 6 weeks almost to the day.
