Is this okay? photos
Hey guys. I just got back from a 4 day vaca and my bro told me my girl shed. So I went in to check and noticed a big difference in her colour. She has always been dark like the last two pics. A dark normal. But today it looks like someone like bleached her sides. And her tail a lot. Her sides are so light and the top is dark like always. Is this alright? Was it just lightening with shed like blushing? Thanks in advanced!
Not sure if it matters but she is three(four in November) years old. Last weighed at around 1650g and about 3 and half feet. Last fed was three weeks ago. Attempted to feed her last week, but he didn't want the rat.






Before this shed she was darker like this

She looks beautiful! 
Nice photos, I really like the first one.
The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

Doesn't look like anything worth worrying about. She'll probably shed it out. Just admire it while it's there. 😊

I remember seeing a similar thread like... at least a year ago back when I was mainly lurking around and not posting. But the BP was normally dark and after a shed had an even more noticeable color change than yours, like to the point that the sides and all were actually white. If I remember correctly it was nothing to worry about and the snake went back to normal after a few sheds.

Either she'll keep getting weirder or go back to normal after a shed or two. Take lots of pics and admire her while it lasts!
