    What the heck are these pink spots???

    My albino has been off feed since around october. I've contributed this to breeding season. He's over 1000 grams and has always been a bad feeder. Recently I noticed he's got these pink areas in a few places on his body. Anybody know wha this is??

    Looks like blood staining/smear? If he was on feed, I would have said feeder blood. I'm not sure.

    Well I still offer rodents, but this looks like blood on the inside.. When I press on it, the area clears then fills up again with that pink coloration...

    Does he have a Hide? All white snakes get light bruising from wedging there self in hides or even between the water bowl and the side of tub. I have a Ivory that even gave herself some bruising from curling her water bowl to hard

    Maybe it's just the way this pic looks on my laptop, but is there some scraping going up the back? What kind of tub/enclosure do you use? Is it one of those with the locking lids (like under-the-bed storage bins)?

    I use tubs without lids. I think his colors are just blending together. I could be wrong. He has a lot of scales that appear to be lifted from heavy rubbing. I'll get more pictures.

    We noticed a spot just like that behind our girl's head the other day. She's always in her hide so we figured it was some sort of bruise.
