    Shedding
    How often do BP's shed? I've looked over the site but can't find any type of a cycle, just want to expect during a shed. Thank you.

    Depends on a lot of information. Age? Food type/weight? I have a late 08 about 175 g's and she is going about every 5 weeks, on a 5 day/1 adult mouse feeding schedule. All snakes are different though. Some grow faster than others, and it depends on how much she is being fed as to how fast she will grow. Hope this helps a little :)

    Cool thank you. I feed my BP once every 6days a small mouse. He's about 5months old, but I couldn't tell you his exact weight, he's thick and looks quite healthy to me. He just finished shedding alittle over three weeks ago, and it looks like he's getting ready to shed again. His eyes have a slight haze to them and his body is slightly dull in appearence.
