Shedding Already?

My snake shed about 3 weeks ago. I feed about 5-6 days and she is about 7 months now. the thing that is worrying me is that her eyes are milky again from what I have read snakes shed 4 - 8 times a year as yearling this obviously declines with age. So is three weeks that bizarre?
Thank you for any info.
I'm not sure where you read that information, but all of my snakes continue to shed monthy until they are 2-3 years old.

Yes, I agree with Cav. Many seem to go monthly till a couple years old that I have noticed. Or almost monthly as they are in their second year. I have also noticed that if one is having a "growth spurt" or is eating frequently and starting to grow again, they can shed less than once a month.

Thanks for your help everyone I wasn't sure the frequency of this as I must have been misinformed from a multitude of sources these including some posts from this site and my vendor from whom I purchased the snake. Nonetheless thank you for your help
