    Dull scales?
    I just got my first ball python about a month ago and things have been going well. She was in a tank to begin with, and I was having some temperature and humidity problems. Even with all that, she had a mostly successful shed last week, eyecaps and most of the shed came all off in once piece, and only a little bit on her tail was left. Now I notice a few days after the shed she has patches of dull scales on mostly the top of her tail, and there is a small patch on the top of her head. It kinda looks like they were rubbed off or something. Is this something I should be concerned about? I also noticed tonight that her belly is slightly pink on the tail end.

    My normal BP, Phil Hellmuth JR., has the same thing going on... He's about to shed any day now, so I'll know if the fresh shed improves anything.
