How long should I give hatchlings to shed?

[RobNJ]

I still feed a week after they hatch, even if they have not shed yet!!

How many of them actually eat?

I have a little runt that's on 5 weeks without her first shed. She was born small and has gotten pretty thin, so I felt it best to assist feed her last night, which she took with no issue. Hopefully a little growth will get that first skin off her.
