Pink belly???

[JodanOrNoDan]

I took him out for a while and it went away....I really think he was just too warm but not burnt, he never burrows in his bedding and when I put my hand on it, it's not hot.....the ambient temp was like 85.....not sure what the temp is under the bedding but like I say he was on top of the bedding, he never hides, he is always out

I can guess temps with my hand and get pretty close so I will not say that it cannot be done but I have a lot of animals and have been keeping reptiles for a long time. I always back my guess up with a shot from a heat gun. You need to remember that what feels warm to you is hot for a ball python. My animals run external body temperatures around the 84 to 86 degree range. Human body temperature is 98.6. So if something feels even slightly warm to you it is probably too hot for a ball python.
