We have a girl (about 2 years now) who is either WC or CH that has the same coloration, and I can guarantee her coloration is not from a burn or other husbandry issue (we run a clean environment with spot on humidity and temps). I'll try and grab a pic of her belly when I get a chance.

What do these snakes look like on the other side?:D

I have a female that has similar coloration as well. She is in a commercial rack with 19 other snakes, all having the same husbandry. In fact, there are two tubs on the same level in the rack, both heated by the same piece of flexwatt. The overall coloration of the snake is much more yellow/gold/orange than any other snake in the collection, and her belly has an orange tint to it as well, which becomes more intense as she enters a shed. Even her shed skins have a yellowish tint to them. She is a possible het pied, but there is no correlation between that and the color. Although I'm hoping that she will produce pieds with that color!

I have a male that will turn pink several weeks before going into blue hes a weirdo. And yes scale rot is a possibility I have a little guy with that right now it was my fault for not inspecting the animal better before purchasing but oh well too late now.
