    Shedding..again?!

    How often do BP's Shed? Mine just shed at like the end of August and when I went to go feed him today his eyes were in blue and the belly a real pink color again. Is it normal for them to shed like once a month?

    When they're young and growing, its not uncommon for them to shed as often as once a month. Once their growth has slowed down, so will their sheds. Also, they may shed more often if they have an injury.
