Shedding and Appetite

[Garrus]

Trying to figure out how shedding and appetite interact. Arthur came to me in a full body shed, but he was a ravenous little thing. Three weeks later, he's getting ready to shed again, and over the last few days I've noticed a drop in appetite at Dubia Time. Considering I also know he has worms and coccidia- waiting on the new vet to get back to me on how high his load is- I'd like to try and figure out whether it's the shed or whether the relocation stress of three weeks back when I got him is catching up to him.

Current shed is not full body yet- his nose, chin, legs, and tail are all in various stages of getting ready to shed. Can I expect his appetite to pick up any time soon when he passes a benchmark, or is this one of those things where it'll just take time? He's grown to ten inches and fifty six grams since I got him, sitting at around three months.

I think this is one of those things that varies between dragons and varies from shed to shed. Sometimes it seems to irritate them more than others. I haven't found any rhyme or reason to it yet. I would just be patient and see how he goes after the shed is done.
