    Quick question;
    Sorry to bother but I'm a bit curious/worried.
    It's my first time seeing certain parts of my snake's scales tinted with a sort of copper like color. There isn't much and the areas affected aren't large but I took a few pictures with my phone so the quality might not be too good. Recently I raised his humidity temp to high 60's because I noticed his color was dull and his eyes faded for 3 days. His eyes are clear now for 2 days. He hasn't pooped in 2 weeks, and he hasn't shed yet. Is it okay to feed him tomorrow like I do every Wednesday even if he didn't poop his last 2 meals? Here are some pics.

    Honestly the bp looks like he's about to shed. You did the right thing by raising the humidity. The imperfection in the ventral scales appear like something he will shed out of eventually. Imo, the copper hue is due to him preparing to shed. Don't feed him until he sheds. Stay in peace and not pieces. Good luck. :gj::)

    Looks like sausage butt too. I'd expect a good poop when he does shed out, they just love letting everything go when the clothes come off.
