Turtles are known to shed. Shedding on a healthy turtle is nothing to be concerned with, however if it is thick or dark in color than you should consult a vet immediately. Another time that a veterinarian should be consulted is if the skin seems red or irritated. This may indicate that there is a problem.
Yes, it's normal for a turtle to shed quite a bit especially after emerging from hibernation.

They sure do
