need help with a question?

hey so im just wondering if this is normal but my ball python has been eating larger meals than usual and two weeks later he now has really wrinkly skin. He doesn't have a pink belly at all, but his skin is dull. but there are like several wrinkles on him even when he his completely straight. did i feed him too much? he is 274 and i gave him a 54g small rat. i have seen him shed before, but the wrinkles have never been this dramatic. but maybe this is a big growth? thanks for your time :)

Sound like he is either going into a shed or is dehydrated. Either way boost your cages humidity to at least 60%

What is your current cage humidity level?

yeah actually its in the 58%-64% should it go higher? maybe its too high?

Whenever my bp sheds she gets very wrinkley. So it should be just that. When she sheds i boost her humitity to about 70.

Certainly not too high... I keep my cages at 60% all the time. I would boost it a bit higher. 70%-75%

ok thanks for the advice everyone!! :)
