Bigger prey = multiple sheds.

So with my last order from rodent Pro i upped the size of food for most of my snakes. They had a sell on 2XL rats for a dollar so i placed a huge order which filled three boxes. I moved my Bloods, Yellow Anaconda, and Male Argentine Boa from 1XL to 2XL. All my Carpets from large to 2XL. The rest eat large except my WLP he eats small. The large they sent were on the big side close to a 1XL. I feed every 3 to 4 weeks as all my snakes are over two years of age.

Since eating three weeks ago my Savu Python has shed 3 times. Once a week. My male & female Argentine, Dumeril Boa, Bredli Python and Jungle x Jag have all shed twice.

I just found this interesting as i never seen it before with upping food but once i had a Burmese shed twice in three week after eating two jumbo rats after another didn't eat. So has anyone else ever had this happen?
