    shedding to much?
    Khan shed about 2 1/2 weeks ago. he just shed again like 3 days ago. Lola our larger adult sub-adult also just shed and is going through another shed. they shed a week apart.

    i dont know whats going on. they feed consistantly, temps fine. enough hides. not alot of activity in their room. Could it be that they are just growing alot?

    our female gets large meals once a week and our male is eating between weanling/hopper and a large mouse. Male wasnt eating when we first got him and the i'm not sure the feeding patterns of the female before we got her.

    any insight?

    Frequent shedding can be a sign of stress or illness too. Keep an eye on 'em.
