    Question Strange mark on ball python belly?

    I found this strange kind of scar on my 5 month bp’s belly. Wondering what it is and if it’s something I should worry about. It’s not open or anything it’s just a weird slit and I’m not sure what it’s from. Any ideas?

    It’s more then likely where the egg was absorbed. Kinda like a belly button. But sure someone could word it better.

    I don't see a picture in your post. Try uploading using Tapatalk; it is a free app and allows easy direct photo uploading. That or post a link to something like imgur.

    But, if I had to guess, it sounds like you would be talking about the "belly button" snakes have.

    Here's a video explaining about snake belly buttons:

    If this doesn't match what you see on your snake, try the app and post that picture so we can see yours.

    Yep, that's your snake's belly button. Nothing to worry about. Good on you for making sure it wasn't a problem!
