No injuries , she is around 6 years old
Actualy she only feed 3 times in this period of time
I was thinking an injury as someone else metioned. Her being 6 years old it should not be rapid growth sheds. Was she a breeder? If so she may have not went last year and has retained the sperm. She maybe gearing up for a clutch. Not likely but a possibility. For example I just had my girl Stella have a clutch. She shed on 2/24, 4/8, then 5/31. She had the clutch on 7/2.
