Had my corn out today, handled her before I gave her a bath.
I had a peek at her belly, a little past half way to her tail there was a dark area, about the size of the end of a cigarette (maybe just a little smaller) in diameter. Just curious of what this is. I put her in a rubbermaid roughneck today with a little water at the bottom to hopefully loosen up the skin on her side. So anyways I looked in the roughneck to take her out. She had poo'd, so I thought maybe that's what I seen (I know, pretty stupid), but when I checked it was still there. Now is this dark "thing" supposed to be there? Or is this something out of the ordinary?
Could it be from constricting? She had eaten on the 15th and constricted the pinkie.

P.S It is not a growth externally, it is internal.

Thanks

Could be more poop on the way, hard for us to know without a pic.

What color is your corn? You might just be seeing one of his internal organs if he is a lighter colored corn.

This is a pick of him, he's an amel.

I'll try and borrow my friends camera, mine won't be able to get a clear pick.

Thanks

Sorry, but I couldn't get that link to work.

The internal organs - heart, liver and gut contents are very easy to see through the belly wall in amel, snow or other corns that lack melanin, and even in those that have it. They are most visible in younger snakes but it is nothing to worry about.

I fixed the link. Thanks Mary, sits a little better with me now. I couldn't borrow the camera so I can't get a pic:(
