Belly Color

rfmaui99 Jul 22, 2005 05:50 PM

I just purchased this 1500 gram female. Her belly markings appear to be normal, but her belly color is almost a salmon color and not white. Any ideas or information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Russ

I also thought that when I was purchasing her. But the person I bought her from says she had just shed about a week before I had bought her.

She is going into shed, the salmon colored belly is normal for a Ball getting ready to go into a shed cycle. The guy could be lying or not know exactly when she shed, or the stress from moving to a new home could also send her into a shed . Her belly looks fine & she will shed soon.
