I bought Velvet on the 4th of December and she shed that morning before i picked her up, but i haven't had a shed off her since!

I'm not worried, because i think her tummy may be turning a little pinky, but is it normal for Royals [or even snakes in general] to maybe delay shedding if they're stressed out?

They will shed when they're ready, there are lots of factors to take into account, like how much they're eating/burning off/growing.
