Is it typical for a Ball Python to go over 8 weeks without going into shed?

My adult BP's sheds are much more inconsistent than my Boas or Carpet Pythons. (She's also the oldest FWIW)

Sometimes the sheds are 30 days apart, 60, or 100 or more. That's not counting no sheds during fasting of 5-9 months.

The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

Please excuse the spelling in my posts. Auto-Correct is my worst enema.
