    HELP! Snake with odd pink belly
    So long story, I got home late last night to notice my snake pooped in her tank. I went to clean it and noticed her belly was grey from the ink on the newspaper she's on. Me being anxious I tried to wash it off her with a wet cloth and a little bit of dish soap, I rinsed her off after to notice it was pinkish underneath where I rubbed. Not like she's pink in shed I know the difference. And it's only in a certain area. So after I just put paper towel down. After this I left for awhile when I came back I saw 2 very very small spots of blood on her paper towel. I panicked and pulled her out, unable to find where the blood came from I let it rest until this morning. This morning I pulled her out to see her lower belly still pretty pink. I'm worried it's something like septciemea or something I don't know. Or from rubbing her I have no idea what please help!

    With not being there and not at least seeing a pic anything will be a blind guess.


    If you have an uth, is it on a thermostat?

    What is her set up, temps and humidity like?

    Do you have an UTH? Could it possibly be a burn?

    Her UTH is controlled with a thermostat, it's regularly just 90-92 degrees.
    Her humidty is usually 45%-50%

    It's only red on her lower belly, not all over like she would be going into shed.

    Are you using an IR temp gun to check your hotspot?
