    Sasha became very dull in color
    So I took out Sasha today to check on her sore from her rubbing her head on most of the things on her enclosure. I pulled her out and she was very brown. But her eyes weren't blue. As far as I could tell her belly wasn't pink. Is this a sign of shedding? Here are some pictures of before and nowhttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/04...27f684bfe6.jpghttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/04...dcb9f8815b.jpg
    Shes about that same color as in picture. It isn't the lighting

    Their colors will dull, their eyes only stay blue for a day or two, same with the bellies. If she's rubbing. It's likely shedding time.

    It can definitely be a sign of shedding. They get dull and sometimes with a pink belly sometimes not for a few days and then you will start to see her eyes cloud over.

    Thanks guys. I've only seen shed once with me and I didn't notice the change. I hope for a good shed. I started to mist the tank down to get the humidity higher

    I've noticed my colubrids will do 'emergency sheds' when they have injuries. These sheds may go a little quicker and spend less time with blue eyes than a normal shed. That could be what you're seeing. Either way, nothing to worry about.

    I'm guessing she is in shed. She bit me for the first time about 2 days agos. I bumped the humidity up and I egerly await the shed. So I can see if she has a mite problem or not still
