Help I have a male leopard juvy. Today when I went to feed him I noticed his belly is pink. I'm not sure why this is. Does anyone know why i's pink or if its normal. He is acting kinda funny but he is eating. What do I do.
I have had several juvies from questionable sources, um, go south on me. How big is he, and how much is he eating? How are the stools? is it an albino? Is the whole belly pink, the front rib area, or the back front of thigh area? does it look distended?

I have not weighed him but he seems fine. He eats very well (except for yesterday, he only ate a 1/4 of what he usually does) and as far as I know there is nothing wrong with the stools. Just his lower belly towards his tail has pink. He is sheding at the moment so I really can't tell if there is any pink on him right now. Any suggestions?
What do you mean as far as you know his stools look fine? do you know what to look for? Is this a juvie? Albino? If you are a new owner and you're really worried, take it to the vet, or call one and describe the symptoms. And does his belly look bigger than usual, or have any other strange colors? (after he sheds)
