I just brought home my new baby Delores. She was a beautiful green when we left the pet store with just a few spots on her feet where she was shedding. We have been home and she has been basking under her light for a few hours and she has since gone into a full blown shed! Is this normal? She is very active, ate a cricket and has been misted twice. The temp under the light is 95 but she has been up and down quite a bit. Is it too warm?

Yea babies shed kinda all at once usually. as they grow they shed less frequently and patchy. if they ever have a problem shed mist some warm water lightly on them... not hot but warm. loosens it up to make it easier. normal misting usually takes care of it on it's own though.
cheers on the baby

ya the babies seem to just burst out of their old skin. they can shed in just a few hours sometimes.
My female Veiled would look like she was going to shed I could leave and just be gone a few hours and come back to her almost done with a mess on the bottom of the cage .... Like "by the way mom you need to clean my cage ..again." they will do this every few weeks sometimes more or less. you will be able to tell when it is coming after a while.
