I have had her for three years, I got her fom someone who was severely under feeding her. So I got her and started her on young rats she was just under 3 feet when I got her. The vet said she is a little small lengthwise because of the under feeding but she is starting to catch up. She makes up now for what she wasn't able to eat before I got her. As far as the shed it is because like I said she was only in the cage for 2 days before she shed, She wasn't interested in soaking at all she was to busy exploring the new enclosure. this shed will probably be a complete. But being she is getting a little on the large size, she is at the point where it is very uncommon for any retic to du full sheds. It is very rare to the point that it is rarely even observed in the wild under perfect conditions.
