    ok, this isnt about my snake, its about my science teachers. he has a 5-6ft red tail boa that shed around easter. well, i noticed that the snakes eyes were cloudy today. how often are they suppose to shed? its only been about 1 1/2-2months between the last shed and this shed.

    Feeding idea!

    I know anything about red tailed boas, so I really couldn't tell you.

    It could be going through a growth-spurt, I suppose. Especially if it's a female, it may still have a fair amount of growing to do. Excessive stress, external parasites or an injury could also cause a snake to go into an early shed.
