Really frequent sheds? 
ok, so you all saw my post where my girl just shed her skin... i believe it was 8 days ago ... well i came home from class tonite and she was soaking in her dish, and when i brought her out after dinner, her eyes have gone blue again and she’s all ashy like she’s about to start another shed ... is this possible? in the past, she’s been more like 6 weeks between sheds...

I know if it is injured they can shed more often,but i have never heard of it in a healthy snake.maybe someone else knows more about this than me.

she’s definitely not gravid... sorry no babies... do they just have growth spurts sometimes?? as long as she clears her sheds, eats, poops, and stays active, i have nothing to worry about, right?

yes they have growth spurts but it is usually directly related to feeding. if your’s is not on a schedual and eats when ever it is hungry i wouldn’t worry. if yours is on a schedual growth should be steady with the schedual.

well, when i got her, i got a bunch of frozen fuzzy mice... she was eating one a week for the first four weeks or so, then two a week for the next 6 weeks, and since about two months ago, she was still acting hungry after two, so i was giving her three at a time... i just wanted to feed her all of what i had. i just ran out last week, and she’s scheduled to eat again on thursday, going to start on small rats that are about the diameter of a quarter...
she always eats every thursday.
