white spots

Hello

well my male had his first shed and I think it went alright it came off clean in 2 pieces.
I am very concerned though cause he now has a few whiteish pink spots where the skin looked "pinched"(?) before the shed. I am very tempted to take him to the vet and if anyone says I should I will be out the door with him.
I thought he looked a bit skinny so I bought him lunch and he gulped it down no problem so that makes me feel a little better...kinda but Im still worried..... Should I be.
Please say its normal,please, please say its normal

i don't see any cause for concern the same thing happened to my boa everytime see sheads there is this red sploch that seems to get bigger and duller and blends in nicely with her its like the shead is bring out more colour in her and i haven't been to worried about that shes more than normal shes eating better then okay "shes a pig who never stops eating" and shes growing real well as for my BP i got him in the pet store and so in the time i've had him hes only shead once he is a pain to feed and he is shy and everytime he sheads its in pieces so with some work i'll have him looking just as good as my boa anyways best of luck to you and your BP

unfortunately my camera is dead I need new batteries and for some reason ever since my bro installed windows xp I cant get into my camera software to resize the pics, so they end up way too huge to post

So far Im hating xp!

After thinking about it though, I'm willing to bet that when the snake shed its skin the scales underneath stuck and peeled off as well

Would that fall under a humidity problem? Im thinking it is.
