I did a search and could'nt find what I was looking for.... I've had my snake for alittle over a month now and there have been no signs of shedding... its been a total of 6 weeks having him now, and he's alittle over 2 months I think.... I thought hatchling snakes were supposed to shed atleast once a month... Any info on this would be appreciated. Thanks

Has it been eating regularly? I believe that hatchlings typically do shed more often than older snakes, but I don't know that once a month is a hard and fast rule of thumb. I got a yearling back in April and she shed once a month like clockwork the first 3 or 4 times then went over 6 weeks before her next one and she had been eating regularly. It's been a month since her last one and she is in blue right now. I think it all comes down to the growth rate of individual snakes. Maybe someone with more hatchling experience can shed (sorry, bad pun :rolleyes: ) some light on the situation for you. :)
 
he eats every wed. evening... hes had 4 meals (only one wich i got the pleasure of watchning him eat) and he just ate about 30 min ago
