Snake is growing but not shedding

When i first got my corn snake he was 17 grams he is now 24 grams and I have yet to see him shed or see any shedding in his tank. Is this normal?
 
They shed when they need to shed, so unless you have signs that he has one stuck (they usually look wrinkly or peel in shreds), he's fine and a shed won't be far off.
 
My snake Squeak has gone from about 16g to 30g, and there have been no signs of a shed. I have him out everyday, except the days after feeding, so I would have seen him go blue. It's frustrating, but he seems perfectly fine, so I'm not really worried about it. I figure he'll shed when he needs to. But I do wish he'd hurry up!
