What is this????

[Immy]

I went to take my ball python out to clean his tank, while inspecting him, I came across this slit on his underside. It isn't infected but I'm worried if it's the first stages of an underbelly infection. It isn't rashy though, so I don't know what it is. I tried to take a clear shot of his stomach using a webcam since i don't have any actual camera to take it with. His temps are around 86-96 and he eats very well. He doesn't show any signs of any kind of ailment. He has been roaming around lately, poking around and whatnot, but nothing to be concerned about. I hope it's not serious...


(This is the best shot of it that I can give you guys. I'm sorry. )

Can someone help me out, please??

It doesn't look like anything is be worried about really. Something could have gotten under the scale and inflamed it a little but I wouldn't worry. Keep an eye on it but I think he's fine.

What a relief.. Thank you kindly. I will indeed continue to observe his situation immensely.
