I’ve searched keywords and can’t find an answer to this so I hope you don’t mind me asking

I wondered when/how often Marbled newts shed? I have three that are roughly 6 months old and I just want to know what to expect in this regard. It’s the only thing I haven’t managed to find in my research.

Thanks in advance
 
It’s going to depend on their rate of growth, which in turn is somewhat dependent on how much they eat.
I’m not even going to guess at frequency, because I don’t actually witness shedding very often.
 
I fully agree with Herpin Man.
Moreover, since newts eat their old skin when shedding, it's very difficult to know when they shed.
(they sometimes show a more bright color just after shedding)
