    Shedding question

    Hello again everyone. I have a rather odd question about shedding. Will an albino ball pythons belly still turn pink prior to a shed? Mine doesn't have a pink belly or anything wrong that I can tell it is more out of curiosity and impatience to wait and see for myself lol . Thanks

    I would assume so, I have no experience of this myself though.

    My albino is much harder to detect a shed on than anybody else.
    If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.

    Re: Shedding question

    I am going to answer my own question now and say no. I had him out last Monday and Wednesday and no pink belly . He ate Saturday so when I decided to take him out for a bit tonight I found a shed in his hide box.

    My Albino does have a pink belly when he sheds. I think the bigger they get, the easier it is to tell.

    Thanks . Hopefully once he gets bigger I will be able to tell.
