    Usually about a week after they turn blue. In a day or so your BP's eyes will return to normal and a few days after that She will actually shed. Just keep the humidity up and you should be fine.

    Start to finish anywhere from 9 to 14 days.

    Read this helpful post, goes through the the entire shed cycle. --> The Shedding Process

    I have one who goes from dull to blue to completely shed in about a week. I have another who starts looking dull and then about a week later goes blue and then maybe 4 days later sheds. Takes him foreverrrrrrrrr...

    ...so somewhere in between there! :D

    In the short time I have had her she has never been this jumpy she usually will climb from person to person almost like saying hi now she just wants to be left alone and I want to keep her stress as low as possible

    My hatchlings usually take around a week for the whole process, while my bigger adult female takes almost two weeks. Just be diligent about boosting humidity and you wont have any issues.
