    Pinkish tint belly sometimes normal? (not shedding)

    Do some morphs always have a pinkish tint to their belly, even when they are not shedding? I know it's not shed because she just shed last week (in 1 piece) and she was definitely pinker then. But I think this has been normal for her as long as I've had her. She's a het red axanthic pastel so I was wondering if that could be related. She's not quite 6 mo old.

    Her UTH consistently measures 88-90 on top of substrate, 92 below, in her hide.

    Hard to tell in the pic, but on further examination it's the color inside the hexagon patterns. The borders are white.

    I'm not extremely familiar with the red axanthic gene but I think it could be the fact it's het red axanthic. If I were you I would safely drop the temp down to 88-90in the hide

    Sorry to clarify, I meant 88-90 on the surface of the substrate in the hide, and 92 measured by probe under the substrate on top of glass.
