measuring & weighing

Just wondering, how long after a shed would I re-weigh and measure??

Ananta just shed on the 18th, but I had only measured her at the end of sept and finally got her wieght on the 4th of Oct.

So my question is: will her length and weight have changed since the shed??

Re: measuring & weighing

I weigh after sheds because they usually defecate and you know they are on empty. 4 days after shedding is negligible in regards to weight, unless you fed her a meal right after she shed. Length will be the same.
