About a year ago my, then nine year old, pet Ball python started shedding weekly. I took him to see a vet who said to change the temperature and humidity in his tank, but not to worry too much because he was still eating and retaining his size. His excessive shedding finally slowed when i got him a larger hide, which was hard to find. After shedding weekly for seven weeks he had shed most of his color, his normally brown spots where left a light yellow with lots of blushing in his formerly black areas. Some of his coloring came back in the following months but he is still so light! His name used to be Blacky because he was mostly dark, for a normal ball. Have any of you ever heard of this happening? Do you think that his color will come back eventually? Just thought i should share this interesting/terrifying event.
