My girl Gilbert was a few weeks old when I got her so she's not much over a year old. (so she's maybe like a year and 2 months old)

She has completely stopped shedding for the past 6/7 (I think that it's been longer actually) months. She's about 15/16". I was told I stunted her growth, which I have learned to accept and move on from. But today she started shedding again? Which is CRAAAAAAAAZYYYYYY to me since she hasn't shed in so long. I thought that she wouldn't shed anymore. Currently it is her entire tail that is pealing (which is adorable to watch because she keeps wagging it back and forth and like a dog trying to get it off) but I have noticed pre-shed blotches all over her.
So I have a few questions.
-Does this mean that she is growing or is it like a kind of clean up shed?
-Is it going to continue to be rare that she sheds?
-Is this normal?
---and honestly any other info you can give me would be amazing.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
