Hello!
If I'm not posting to the right area Please tell me! I'm new!
So I have three Ball pythons. Two normals and one Het pied. I've had my normals for three weeks now and you know that itch you get after you get your first one or two? Well I got it just in time for x-mas and My Mum ended up getting me a het pied! Yay! But I have a slight problem. She's probably only three months old and she lives in a ten gallon tank. So I picked her up just like ten minutes ago to take a look t how pink her belly was to see if she would be shedding when I noticed a tiny maybe a half inch in length crack running down her belly scales by her tail. I started panicking a bit because it kind of looks like my males healed Belly burns from a very long time ago... like eight years but not healed. it's not big though and I don't remember seeing it yesterday when I was cleaning some of her poop away. Any way she's on cocoanut bedding because it holds humidity, has a ten gallon zilla tank heater, and a 60 watt normal light bulb. Then the other things you need like water bowls and hide. Any way I spray her cage down with some water when its dry and I added some bedding because I noticed it's not very think so she has about an inch of bedding now. But she is going to be a breeder in about four years or so and well I was wondering If I should take off the heating pad or will it stop her from being a breeder when shes older or does any one have any pictures of their baby ball pythons belly burns so I can see it thats the problem? Or anything really. I'm so upset I didn't see this or anything and I'm so so stupid! I should have know that the bedding was too thin.![]()
