Help! Marks on the belly
I've had my new BP since last Friday and honestly I thought I had everything ready but it's been a bit chaotic.
First he had stuck shed on his eye when he got here. I gave him like 80% humidity and he was able to get it out on his own.
But the high humidity led to mold on one of the branches in his enclosure. I know I'm supposed to leave him alone for a few weeks so I felt awful that I had to take him out to clean everything.
When I was about to put him back, I noticed some dots on his belly and now I'm afraid it might be scale rot, what do you guys think?
I really hope its just dirt/pigment from the coco husk, I don't wanna disturb him again, I feel like a bad snake parent q-q

I think it's dirt. Leave him alone.

I agree, just looks like some dirt in the scale edges.
And just in case, that line down the middle is the 'belly button'

Thanks for the answers! I tend to overthink stuff and I just want him to be healthy and comfortable, so knowing it's just dirt is a relief
