Re: What is this?
I believe that is where the umbilical cord was attached when it was in the egg.

Ok good. That's what I figured but was wanting to be 100%.
We brought him and a Boa home.

Re: What is this?
It will totally close up and disappear as it grows. Nice looking little snake. Is this a morph as the head looks like it has something going on?

They did not. I seen a few spots that the shed stuck. He said he has only ate once so probably under 2 weeks.

I'm concerned that you may have been sold a baby that hasn't eaten yet. The umbilicus closes within days (or less usually) of emerging from the egg.
This leads me to believe it was either split too large at hatching, which can be caused by different things, or you have a baby that hasn't even had its first meal yet.
I second Dr dels question. Do you know how old it is?
Ok I see where you said it ate once. Was this with you?

It is the area where the umbilicus is but it appears to me to be too long and not properly closed. I believe this is often a result of incorrect incubation temps. I would be cautious here if this is what I suspect there is already issues with this breeder and I would be concerned about any breeder selling a snake with what appears to be a unclosed umbilicus.
This snake IMO should not be for sale, I would question the ethics of any breeder whom had this snake for sale with such an issue.
