Hi all, was wondering if anyone had any experience of a snake shedding more frequently than usual?

Jasmin used to shed every 30 or 40 days but recently its been every 17 or 18 days.

She shed on the 3rd April (63 days between sheds)
then on 21st April (18 days)
8th May (17 days)
and again yesterday (25th May 17 days)

Nothing has changed in her viv and I have checked for mites and injuries. Shed is also feeding every week and pooing fine. Any ideas?

Mine has shed 3 times in the last 2 and a half months, I agree with summer growth sput.

Think it could have been, she's not been doing as much recently

My mate at works king is doing exactly the same thing.

Maybe it's just a summer growth spurt?

Glad you raised this as my Mbk has gone from a good 4 weeks to 3 weeks.
He last shed May 13th and is in Blue as of yesterday which is under 3 weeks!
