Is this normal!!!!! im not sure at all but matilda is blue AGAIN, its only been 2 full weeks since she last shed!!!!! i know they say monthly in small pythons but fortnightly!!!!! apart from this she is super healthy, we have no mites and all else seems fine, feeding really well etc, peraps to well? hence the quick shed??
Its very normal for a snake with a mite problem (current or past) to shed several times in quick succession to repair the damage the mites are causing. Once the mite treatment is successful and the damage stops then the shedding will level out to normal. Normal being Royal normal, so whenever they feel like it to keep us confused. lol.
matilda is blue again
