How often do coastal carpet snakes shed their skins?

Question

we've only recently bought our coastal carpet and it is about 2 years old and is about 1 meter long. i'd just like to know how often they shed.....

Answer 1

When your snake is getting ready to shed, its eyes will blue over, and its skin will become dull looking.

There sheds depend on ther growth usually it will shed from between 2-5 times a months this varies.

good luck

Answer 2

The snake will shed the more often they eat and grow.  Mine is around 8 foot and she sheds every 6-8 weeks.  I try to feed her once every one or two weeks.  You could expect a similar pattern, though if you feed more, they will shed more.

Answer 3

Completely depends on how much the snake is being fed and its growth rate.

Hatchlings and juveniles might shed every 5 - 8 weeks on average if fed weekly. Older animals will not shed as often, maybe once every 4 or more months.

Seeing as yours is still rather small at 1 meter long, you can expect it to shed every few months.

Hope this helps! =)

Answer 4

i think its once every 4 months
