Freshly Shed

Well, the little brown boa I got on the 14th had his first shed with me a night or two ago, and to say the least, I was blown away. His background color went from a light brown to a grey that fades to brown as you go further down him. It seems like a bit of his pink/orange tints are gone as well.

Do you guys think he's going to keep lightening up like this, or do you think maybe he will get back to how he was when I got him once his skin isn't so fresh? Here are some of the pics I could get that actually show his new color.

Thanks in advance for looking

After


This pic kinda messes up his color but it gives an alright size reference.

Re: Freshly Shed

Thank you!! He has quite the personality, that second pic is his "don't get the camera any closer" pose.
