    Length of Shedding?

    Hi there!

    My baby Ball just started his shedding process a few days ago (his eyes are just blue right now) and I was wondering how long the shedding process usually takes??

    Thanks!

    Thanks guys! So approximately a week give or take. Sounds good! It's just that he refused his last feeding because he had started the process so I'm not wanting him to miss more than 1 more.

    That works, his feeding day is tomorrow so perhaps I shall try to feed him and see how it goes.

    if he is in blue he probably won't eat. but its worth a try if his eyes are clear

    Yeah, no harm. His eyes were blue last night, tomorrow I'll try to feed him and if he doesn't want it that's no big deal.

    Re: Length of Shedding?

    About a week is average, but if it takes longer I wouldn't worry--I have two boys that, from the time they go blue, take 10+ days every time. Some of them just like to take it slow
