Hmm...not shedding

One of our snakes a 2003 22" 1.0 bloodred hasn't shed in about 2-3 months. While another one of my snakes 2003 20-21" 0.1 Amel Stripe has had 2 sheds during that time. Should I be worried?

I am always checking him to see if he goes into "blue phase" because hes a bloodred I love seeing his colors change with each shed, although he hasn't shed in a really long time.

Maybe he knows that I am watching him. :mad:

Has your snake been eating o.k or has it been a bit slow at eating. If he is having a slow eating spell he will not grow so quickly, thus not needing to shed.

Thats the thing,
hes a very good eater actually and is our biggest (and thickest) 03' corn, beside the lavender female that I got this morning.

As long as he is eating and otherwise healthy looking, I wouldn't worry for now. Corn snakes have varying rates of growth from one to another which is perfectly normal, so it's hard to compare two.
