Don't worry or panic, they all shed at different times.
Depends on the individual, how much you feed them (not just frequency but total weight of all foods consumed and quality) and temperatures they are kept at which affects metabolism. Also age. So there are Lots of variables.
Signs they are going into a shedding cycle.
1, colours darken/dull for all. Not so bright for some albinos and other light snakes
2. may (not always) go off food.
3, pink on the underbelly of lighter snakes sometimes blueish.
4, dull, or clouded colours.
5, possibly a bit less confidence.
6, more time in water bowl.
7, more time in the hide,
8, eyes dull or even blue cast like a zombie, depending on how deep a shed is coming on will determine the amount of blue.
Its pretty much the same for any type of snake.
That's all I can think of. Other members may have more.
