| I purchased a small LP sling from a reptile show this past spring. I have heard they are fast growers but it has molted twice this month. Is this "normal"? | |

| Depends on how small, how much you feed it and how warm it is. My tiny slings I usually feed more often so it will grow a bit faster. I do this so they can put on a little size. It's not unheard of for a sling to molt twice in a month. Especially if it is small and well fed. | |

| Mine did that twice, it was .5" and I kept her at 80 degrees and fed 3 times a week and the first 2 months I had her she molted twice. She's molted again and is now 3" and feeding once a week. | |
