IF you're going to get chickenpox from a shingles exposure, it would take between 10 and 21 days to get chickenpox.
You'd have to never have had chickenpox before to get shingles, however, even if you'd never had chickenpox, you still might not catch them from being exposed to shingles.

What happens to an infant who has been exposed to shingles?
Shingles and Chicken Pox are essentially the same bug, Varicella. It is more usual for a child to get Chicken Pox. Shingles tends to be something adults get, and it is very painful and debilitating. I'm not sure how old the infant is, but the most likely thing that could happen to an infant exposed to Shingles is that the baby will not get ill, or if the baby does get ill, s/he will get Chicken Pox rather than Shingles. Most mothers have had Chicken Pox and are immune to it, and the infant is protected by the immunity inherited from his or her mother for several months after birth. If the baby is breastfed, the immunity is passed to the baby through mother's milk for a lot longer. And if the baby is exposed to a germ or virus that the mother is not immune to, the mother's mature immunity system gets to work to make antibodies which are passed through the breastmilk to the baby so the mother actively helps to fight off infections her baby is exposed to. This answer applies only to infants who have normal health and nutritional status.
