Moulting Concern

[Dave Grace]

Hi @ all
been a long time since i was on here last, hope everyone had a great Xmas, and is looking eagerly forward to the New Year?

The reason I have reared my ugly head is that my G.rosea (female) has not moulted for now over 2 years (last moult 22 Dec 09), is this normal ?

if anyone could (pardon the pun) "shed" some light on this i would be most grateful : )
