I deleted your other post. In the future, just edit your post rather than starting a new topic with the same question only to correct one item. 
Anyway, if she's a young bp it's not unusual. How old is she? How often they shed depends on age (more often for younguns) and feeding (how often, what size, how many, etc). Assuming you have a young bp, it's just a sign she is growing. Frequent shedding can be a sign of some illness, etc - but again I probably wouldn't worry.

A hopper mouse? That seems small for a 5 month old bp. Mine's only 2 going on 3 months and she's taking down adult mice easily.

I had Ippo shed only after two weeks once, after he got fed an extra meal (a pretty big one at that) that one of the others refused. Generally, it's once every month with ideal sized prey items.

You can likely up Amy's prey size. Prey should be equal in size to the widest part of her body - up to 1.5 times that, and should leave a lump. Young snakes shed more like every 4-6 months, but can do so more often if food size/frequency, etc increases as 'hhw' said.

Amy has been eating hoppers since I got her and they do leave a lump, for like the first day, then you cant really notice anything. The hoppers are slightly bigger than the biggest part of her body so Im gonna keep with them, I wish I could take pics but I cant. Either way, she's definately going into shed again, her eyes are blue and cloudy and weird looking and she's being really inactive.
