Snakes shed as they grow. Infrequent sheds means slow/no growth. Humidity controls how easily the shed peels off their skin-not how often they shed.
There could be an underlying health issue, but, I suspect this snake is not getting enough food. It should have rocketed past 300 grams (from 214g) in 8 months.
I will feed my young ball pythons as much as they will eat (undersized prey) in one session/week until they reach aprox. 600 grams before I *consider* regulating their food intake.
