I have fed my girl the day before shedding and then the next night after she had shed and ate the skin, so I don't know if would be that. And ya that was probably what he was doing, the first time I seen mine shed I freaked because I didn't know what think was happening. But I looked it up and calmed myself down. Its something else to watch. I know there is someone very knowledgeable about pac mans looking through the forum right now so hopefully they see this thread.
