Female corn shedding A LOT

[Shaiza]

I'm pretty sure she was captive bred. Her weight seems stable but I don't really have a scale. She's definitely not fat or thin. Everything about her seems fine which is very confusing. How would I know if she's gravid?

And the weird shedding has been going on for maybe 3 months or so. But even then it was like once a month. I assumed she was growing a lot.

Great! The original owner should know if she was with a male while in his keep. Also if she ever had babies in the past. You can get a small kitchen scale at Target to track her weight. If she is gravid and in the early to mid stages her appetite would be increased for 1 and she will put on weight. Check on a regular basis her underbelly for irregularities in proportion, bulging at the mid body and before the cloacal region. For the record, frequent shedding is done in a effort to heal something as well as to grow. Are you feeding live mice or f/t ?

So she was never with a male. Never had babies. Is it possible she could have a clutch that's unfertilized? Had lizards do that.

And she's fed frozen.

She does try to escape constantly and falls off things a lot in the process but she doesn't have any injuries I could see but I'll recheck her.
