    snake has a small cut on belly
    so i took out my new pastel ball to mist under her hide and upon looking at her belly and seeing it was pink (going into shed i know) i looked at more and more of her and saw a small cut on her belly not to deep and pretty small may be about the size of Lincolns head on the penny from left to right and was wondering if i should buy something to put on it or just let her be and keep watch of it ?

    neosporin with out the pain killer added, it should get better in a shed or 2, look closely around your habitat and eliminate any possibilities that could have done it or a rodent may have scratched the snake as well

    I think that may be the belly button ( sankes do have them ) can you see exposed flesh in the scratch

    I would bet its just the belly button just looked at my snake and his looks like that too hopefully some more experienced people will chime in but I am pretty sure thats what that is

    Perfectly normal, thats where the little girl absorbed her first meal while still in the egg. It will get harder to see as she gets older but will still be slightly visible.

    Yes, that is where the umbilical cord was attached to the snake from the yolk, IE: the belly button.
