I have a female albino nelson's milksnake. She sheds every month, and she is a good sized snake. Almost full grown. Is this normal to shed so often?

Snakes never stop shedding. They shed less frequently as they reach their mature size, but they never stop.

If your snake is shedding a lot, it means it is growing a lot. And in all reality, snakes never stop growing, unless they are malnurished.
