    All my big girls are in shed?

    All 3 of my girls are in shed. Pinstripe just shed today and the other two are right behind her. 70% RH and a perfect shed from such a big girl.

    Is this just coincidence, or am I possibly looking at pre-ovulation sheds? They are all virgins. Seems kind odd they are all going into shed at the same time. I have not dropped temps- a steady 88-90F hot spot and 82F cold side.

    Doubtful, but thats because I dont believe in pre ovulation sheds. The shed before my females ovulate can range from 2 months to 2 weeks.

    Sometimes I wonder if they sync their shed cycles like human women sync their menstrual cycles. Both my spider and normal shed on the same day about a week ago. I thought it was super strange.

    it's probably because you feed them all the appropriate sized meals so they're all growing at the same pace. i have had snakes shed one day after another the same week every month and some of them are males

    Did you show your collection to anyone recently? The couple times I've tried to show my collection to a friend they've all managed to be in shed at the time.

    my collection sheds all over the place. Some back to back but more often then not someone is always in shed. Even if they shed the same week this month, next month they might shed 10 days apart. My three big females hardly ever shed at t he same time. Disclaimer...... none are breeder size, three close though.
