Only one can be chambered unless you have a double barrel, then there can be two. If you mean how many can be in the magazine of a repeating shotgun, you can have onlyone in the chamber and two in the magazine when hunting migratory waterfowl. Otherwise, as many as it will hold (commonly 5 in most pumps or automatics and 3 in bolt actions). However, if you live in an anti-gun state like Kalifornia or New Jersey, there may be legal limits, but they should only affect "hi-capacity" removable magazines, ie, no magazines that hold more than 9 shells.

How many shotgun shells does it take to fill up the moon?

The moon is very big about 1/4 of the size of the Earth (it looks small because it is a long way away). The moon is also solid (like the Earth) and thus there is no room in it to be filled up with shotgun shells. If the moon was empty then you would have to turn 1/4 of the Earth into shotgun shells to fill the volume the Moon takes up.
