my leo shed 2 weeks ago and his color is fading again and he is spending lots of time in his moist hide he is happy and healthy just looks like he is shedding again I was wondering if I should be worried about him

I don't know how old is he but if his still growing or gaining weight, it's normal.

I have one gecko that sheds almost every 14 day and another that sheds only about every three months, it all depends upon their growth rates.

Yeah I haven't heard of anything bad becoming of something that's shedding alot...Anyone else hear some kind of shed=bad?

Shedding isnt associated with anything bad, all it means is tht the herp is growing so its a good thing

A gecko that is ill and losing weight will also shed
It works both ways-they shed when they are gaining or losing weight but you should be able to determine which it is visually or by weighing him
