Hoggie shedding cycles - really, really puzzled!!!

Please can someone shed (ooh bad pun) some light on what a Western Hognose (age about 8 months) should be?

We've had our hoggie since October, and he has shed once, in December, perfectly, all in one piece. This was a surprise at the time, as we saw no 'blue phase'.

About a month ago we did see a definite blue - milky eyes and all - and then waited. And waited. And waited.

We're still waiting. He is fine in all other respects - his skin feels soft and same as it always did.

Please, please tell me what we should expect?
Much appreciated,
Brig.
