how often do bearde dragons shed??

well mine is only like what 3 months average both of them so i was sonderind how many times do they shed?? or until they stop growing??so they still shed when they are full grown>??
Answers:
Depends on how fast it is growing. It will shed into adulthood and beyond. It becomes less frequent, but they do shed when they are full grown
Once reaching maturity, the bearded dragon will shed every six to eight weeks.
Mine is almost 4 years old and she sheds approximately every 8 weeks. Sometimes a little sooner.
They shed about every 8 weeks. They shed until they stop growing, and they will still shed when they are full grown. My beardie is 8 years old, and still sheds. The think with beardies, is a lot of beardies eat their shed. So, you may not ever have to clean dead skin out of their cage! Wierd, but it's amazing how many of them eat it. I was talking on www.beardeddragon.org and a lot of people said that their beardie eats the skin!! anywho, but, they do shed until they are an old fart like mine, Toad.
