It varies with the age of the snake. The younger the reptile is - the quicker it's growing, and will shed more frequently. As it gets older, its growth rate slows, and it doesn't need to slough as often. A hatchling may shed five or six times in its first year, while a 20-year-old specimen may only shed once in eighteen months.
