    lighter with each shed

    My normal Avalon ( who im pretty sure is male but i called him a she for several months so excuse me if i call him a her ) was a rescue. He keeps lightening up color wise with ever shed and im wondering if its just because he is healthy now? or is there something else going on? ( probably not but curious anyway) when i got him he was a milk chocolate brown in his spots and now they are more beige ish in color. He's about as bright as my friend's fire if that gives you a better idea. not a good fire but still.. I'll post some before and after pictures when i get home

    How old is he? Some snakes get duller in colour when they age.

    He has only been with me for 3-4 months and there is already a visible difference. He hasnt grown much length wise but his girth has grown tremendously. Came to me at 78g and is now about 370g
