    Does this look serious?

    I'll start by saying, Broomhilda ate last Saturday, and the mouse was an exploder, looking back on it the water to thaw it was too hot. So, does this look like dried blood from the mouse? Or like stage one of something bad?

    That looks like stuck shed. Does it come off when you wipe it with a damp cloth?

    No, she hasn't shed at all yet, I thought it was blood from the mouse and it didn't come off.

    My pieds get odd discolored patches when they go to shed as if some of it seperates a bit before the whole snakes shed. I think it's just more noticeable on a white animal.

    That's what I wanted to hear. I wasn't 100% but I think she is starting to shed because she's got kinda pale on her tale and a little on her head. I recently increased the humidity for this in particular.

    My pieds and ivory both do this. My ivory turns straight up pink before he sheds, haha.

    My pieds turn an alarming pink for a short period of time during shed as well. White snakes go into 'the pink' instead of 'the blue'. Heehee.

    Give it a week and you will suddenly have a blindingly white pied!
