Ongoing BP Question Thread

The sound you are hearing is the scales popping most likely because the snake is getting ready to shed. I heard a similar sound in my female het ghost and I had posted on here about it. My female is currently in shed also.

Every snake that I have handled, including my balls and my boa, when they go pink it is like there scales are flake or loose I think there skin kind of loosens to allow the new skin to grow in to it.

Aye sounds like the start of shed nothing to worry about your snake should go blue in a couple days. Then it will have a nice new skin My Pied girl always picks up a little Eco Earth under her scales when she is just starting to turn pink belly and I do hear a lot of poping and snaping if I handle her during this time
Hope this helps
