My Borneo's scales have been spreading away from its body for the last few days. Here's a pic of it:

I figure it's either too low humidity or she is getting ready to shed. I already raised the humidity but is that really whats causing it? I have never seen this on my Sumatran blood, even when she was shedding.
Thanks for any help!

All my snakes look like that when they are about to shed as well. Is her belly getting pink?

Yea her belly is getting kind of pink. Thanks for both your help! I figured it was nothing serious but I have never seen it before on my blood so I was curious.
Thanks again!
