About 3 weeks ago my snake pooped in the night and somehow had it smeared ALL of his body. From head to tail. Almost as if it had wallowed in it. Well I dumped in warm water, and washed him as best as possible, then I rubbed him down with about a million paper towels. I don't know if it all came off though. Whe he shed the follow 2 weeks, his color was ALL gone. He looked ash greyish pink, and the red tail was dull like it had been bleached. will his color come back, is there anything I can do to help the color return. I read frequent feedings??? has this ever happened to anyone? Thanks for the help! By the way he's doing just fine health wise.
