Right, but if this were linked to age, then wouldn't it make sense for her female to have shed more than once in the past 2 years.
I suppose it may not be an age correlation, but more a growth-health relationship. For example, my female was growing like no tomorrow, therefore she shed more times than my male who was growing very slowly. If her female is no longer growing (because she is an adult), or at least not very much, then it would go to say that she probably won't shed every couple months.
Now, this is all just speculation based on what I have read and observed. Granted, I'm sure there are copious amounts of other factors that would play into this shedding equation (temp, humidity, etc.).
