They don't shed on a schedule. And if those pictures are today, she doesn't look like she's due to shed any time soon. The time to worry is if she goes blue then doesn't shed within a week.

Not exactly. They can go blue for just a couple of days, or a couple of weeks. It can be very cloudy or just a little. Then suddenly one day, the cloudiness clears up. That's when they should shed. AFTER they go clear again. They will still look rather dull at that time but not cloudy. After they go clear they will shed right away or it could take a few days. it certainly shouldn't take longer than a week after going clear. If it's been longer than that and they start looking wrinkly, then worry.

Looks to me like she's going to shed any day now. Like she's got done with the cloudy part and will shed any time now.
