Hey all! I've just got a small question I'm hoping someone can help me out with!
Tonight, my ball python Violet denied food for the first time. She's eaten every time I've offered her food before. My numbers are: 90 on the hot spot, ambient temperature of 80, and a humidity of 64%. A few days ago, I thought she looked pink on her belly and might be going into shed. I forgot that today though, and thawed the rat anyway. I've never offered food to her while she's been in shed, in case that has relevance. Seems simple enough, but her stomach is back to a creamy color. I guess my question is, is it possible that she IS going into shed despite the pink being gone? And is it possible she denied the food because she's starting shed?
Sorry if this is a silly question, I'm just a bit worried about her. She seems in good spirits, only exploring a bit before going back into any one of her hides for a few hours.
Thank you for reading!![]()
