Am I just tripping?

[ali.randax3]

is it just this one section or is it all over?

it definitely looks like something is under the scales, and i do not think you're trippin'.

EDIT: what type of substrate do you use?

It starts a couple inches from her head, like 8 or 9 and goes all the way down, seems like the spots get more scattered and less once they get closer to her tail. I tried to get a better pic, but she doesn’t want to cooperate. I use zoo med forest floor.
