Shed

My little intergrade has shed for the first time for me last thursday. I was just wondering how often snakes shed, and why his eyes didnt go hazy blue before his shed?

Belle(Gecko Gaze),
Shedding intervals are dependent on a number of things, including how often you feed them, age, health including any injuries, enviromental conditions etc...
You may of just missed the hazy blue eyed phase, can be done sometimes, sometimes it is more noticable than others.

I seem to remember you saying that your snake hasn't eaten an awful lot since you have had it, this will explain why it hasn't shed very often.
Cheers
Neil
