OK i posted this earlyer but i did not have any pics, and now i have some. My ball shed and after the shed these spots appeared where the color was gone. any ideas on what is going on with it? anyone? You can see a few spots and the white on the spine in the pic of the whole snake, and a close up of one of the spots in the other pic.

has she been in physical contact with regurgitation? I have read that that can 'burn' some plale spots (never seen it myslef, just remember reading it)
Just a thought

But it wasn't from a bad shed, or burning. She had a complete one piece shed, and a there is nothing to be burnt on. Hmm


P.S. I love her, she's gorgeous and has a very great pattern.

could inbreeding in generations past have anything to do with it?

just wondering.

I think it adds to their beauty!!

she wasent in any contact with regurge either, and her last shed(when i noticed the spots) was a complete shed. oh well just a beauty i guess.

after her shed she had these grey and white discolored scales.
she has shed two or three times since, and the scales returned to their original color.
I could not find an explanation for the occurance.
