    Wink BP bleeds when shedding

    Hello,

    I haven't found any conclusive information about this issue, and there are no snake vets where I live (Asia).
    I have had my BP for 2years and a half and everytime she sheds, there are a few drops of blood in the cage, i can tell it's from her vent.

    should i be worried ? thanks

    100% normal, nothing to worry about unless the bleeding doesn't stop after a few minutes.

    A couple of mine bleed every time they shed. As long as it's just a small amount, it should be nothing to worry about.
