hey all,
just wondering if anyone else has seen anything like this..........
i got an 8ft female bci and she has shed 4 times in the last 7 weeks, she has no mites, temps and other conditions are perfect, but as soon as she finishes one shed she starts again!
cheers

Hey...
Obvious questions...but has she been exposed to a male recently?
Any recent trama or injury?
Any changes to her enclosure or environment?
Very interesting..hmmmmmmmmm

she was last with a male 5 months ago and this is not the first year that she has been with a male and not produced, even though copulation has been confirmed. she has been in the same viv for the past 4 months, nothing changed. just cant work this one out!
cheers
