Mine Stimsons will eat during a shed cycle, but my Coastals are not interested even a few days before their eyes go cloudy. As a rule I will not feed if I know they are coming up to a shed. An extra week or so without food is not going to do any harm.

I have also noticed that if feed straight after a shed, their feeding response is not good, although they will still eat. It appears that they need a day or so to recover from the exertion and possibly the stress of sheding. If I give them another day then they give a good feeding response.
