Hey guys i was wondering if it was possible for some of you with all your knowledge could cast your eye over this pic of my boas head. Now i dunno if it's just me but just above his eye and running towards his neck the scales seem rather dark and im almost certain they have been getting slightly darker over the last week. not sure if its just a scale colour i've never noticed or what. any thoughts?

newspaper ink. Some of my lighter boas get marks like that from hiding under the newpaper; especially when I mist the cage. Try washing it off and see what happens.
