    Spots on belly = bad news?
    My vet noticed these red spots on my hypo boas belly and thought it might be an infection. This vet is notorious for not knowing what he's doing so I wanted to double check. She is in the height of her shed cycle right now and I can't remember whether she always has these spots or if she only has them while in shed.

    I've only had this girl for a few months and she already has a myriad of problems such as RI, bad head rub, and a wound inside her mouth from a rat bite. Really hoping this doesn't turn out to be another problem to deal with.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0d30ab284b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...9728bc273d.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c202b2be76.jpg

    Don't panic, from what I see it's not a lssues. It looks like his coloration. One of my females has those same spots,for years. Again I could be looking at something different. However I think you will be OK.

    The red spots, right? Not the black spots.

    Thank you!

    Yes, the red spots. One of my females has always had them. I don't think it's a burn, or anything like that. Some boas have a bit of pinkish red color on there undersides. Even on the uppersides as well. I think you will be fine. I would post a picture of my female if I were home to do it so that you could see what I'm talking about.
