    Not shedding!

    So my 3month old normal has not shed since 11/10/10. I have in a 6qt tub with a water bowl. The how side is around 85F and the cool side around 70-75F. She eats a good size mouse for her body size every 5days and takes it very well. The hudity, right now, is about 50-60%.

    Is it cuz the winter season mabye??? I need to know cuz this is really weird to me.

    Shedding happens more often when they gain weight faster. It's not necessarily an age thing.

    Also, I'd bump up those temps. Get the hot side to 90 deg. and the low side to 80 deg.
