Hi I have had slash 7 weeks now (o9 royal) & he still hasnt shed, now my corn who is about 2 years old has always shed roughly every 6 weeks. I was asuming that been as slash is smaller he would be growing faster & therefore shedding at 6 weeks at least. He is feeding fine, never had 1 refused, & he seemed to be going blue a while ago & was found in his water bowl, but now has took a liking to a kitchen roll tube & doesnt venture out half as much as he used to.
Starting to wonder if he is ok?
Thanks for any help.

Thank you, was getting concerned, he looks like his head has gone dry with a talc appearance between his head scales so reckon it could be soon.
Thanks again for your help.
