How often do BTS shed (I have a baby Irian Jaya if that changes anything.)

Adults shed about every 6 weeks or so. Babies shed a lot more often because they are growing so much.

Uther definitly doesn't shed every 6 weeks. He sheds much less, I would say every 3 to 4 months is more accurate for him. Any reason for this I wonder that someone could give?

Age plays a difference, and I'd imagine every skink is different. :)
