Depends on the species, food intake, and humidity. Generally, you want to see a complete whole body shed. Veils and panthers will first shed at around 4-6 weeks depending on variables. Humidity and misting are important to help with the release of the skin.

As previously said. Also when they are little they tend to shed all at once and be done rather quickly (within a day at the most). Once older they can shed piece meal and take several days to complete the process.
