Leopard Gecko shedding ???

How often do adult Leopard Geckos shed? I have no Idea how old my Leo is - I think the person who was the previous owner was far from honest about his age and health. My guy seems to be thriving and has improved health since he has been with me. The significant health challenge we have accommodated, with feeding, is his lack of eyesight. My concern is in three months of having him he has not shed once - I have seen our other Leo shed at least three times (7 months old). I have a moist hide. Any assurance or advice would be appreciated.

They shed every 2 weeks or so as adults. Sometimes you'll never see them shed because they do it quickly. Young leos shed almost every week.

check for skin around the toes or bits left on the cage floor. this will tell you that they shed recently. my adults shed maybe once a month.

I have 30 leos and I only see maybe one once in awhile shed. They do it at night, Im sleeping so by the time I get up all is done and eaten. Just because I dont see them shed doesn't mean they dont.
