Aye, blue means when in shed. Her usual colour is glossy black but she has a lovely metallic sheen to her when in blue, i'll get some pics up when she sloths this old skin :gj:

....:tongue2: WOW!
That is one gorgeous snake! Normally I don't like dark snakes, but solid black is an exception!

And yes, blue = shed time. 'In Blue' refers to the fact that (most) snakes eye caps turn opaque blue when the old skin is 'separating'.

haha poor mans indigo...
ive always liked kings though...
even if they are meanies. lol

i have a blotched and cant wait till he gets that size.

Gorgeous, I love how cool they look when in blue. A reason they could be calm is due to inability to see, their vision gets cloudy and probably changes their behavior a little bit, I know my snake is less flighty when in blue.

His stomach matches his eyes!
