    Same here.
    The Pastels, Spider, Fire and Bee all get seriously pink and stay that way for what seems forever.
    The Yellowbelly goes "peach".

    I wish I'd taken a photo of my Colombian Boa when he went pink.
    He was precisely the color of canned salmon.

    You want scary? The first time my pied went pink, I thought she'd gone swimming in red Koolaid! Everywhere that was white turned bright pink, not just her belly. :O

    Wow, geez! I thought that the ones that go pink just go slightly pink, so I was really alarmed to see the color of his belly. It's good to know that it's totally normal. I thought for sure he had gotten burnt, but his temps are spot on. I'm so excited to see his colors after his shed!

    This. ^

    When my pied boy gets ready to shed, all of his white turns pink. I mean, really pink! More than once it has freaked me out, even though I already know what it is.

    i ask because i think i know what u mean by crinkly because thats the only way i can describe what my snake is like right now. His belly is pink and his scales feel all crinkly and weird.

    i know that worried feeling and it scares the crap out of me to feel him like that. I have been debating whether or not to start a betadyne bath treatment cause some of his scales have a brown tinge around the edges and its worrying me
