How often do they shed?

Bernie shed about a week and a half ago, he's gone off his food last couple of days could he become up to shed again? How often should he shed, he's bout 3 months old and 7 and half inches from nose 2 tail

yes he could be about to shed again. My daughters lizard at 6 months seems to shed every 2 1/2-3 weeks--he is in the middle of a leg shed--or at least half a leg. He had a rough shed with his belly and back but nothing a bath with a SOFT bristle toothbrush didnt help

Ah ok thanks, they must shed quite often when they are young because they grow so fast

My beardie is almost about 2 years old.. I've had him since late december and he JUST started a shed. Is something wrong? He hasn't shed between December and now.. I fear there's something wrong..

No there is nothing wrong with yours. I har after about 18-24 months (1--2 yrs) they shed fanywehre from 2-4 times a year. Ours are much yougner still --mine is only 6 months

I have one guy that has been in constant shed since I got him in January. Some part of him has been in shed mode - not all of him. That being said, he has also grown about 7 inches since then so it's understandable!
