pink belly???

[mattramsfan]

i just noticed that my almost 3 year old BP has a pink belly.... im almost certain that this means he got burned.... am i right??? and if so how do i help him? thanks

it could also mean your snake is about to shed. all my ball pythons get a pink belly before they are going to shed. i hope this helps

well that would make more sense to me cause he did have a bluish tint to him when i took him out to hold him tonight. thank u. im sure by tomorrow night his eyes will be all clouded over.

Why would you think he got burned? It should be a shed coming

My Ball Pythons go through the same thing for about 7-10 days before they shed. I wouldn't be too worried about it right now. Wait until after the animal sheds then see what the belly looks like.
