Shedding Color Change

[parzi]

My baby Albino Corn Snake is about to shed for his first time. I fed him on Monday but I see a some of his skin is a little purple towards the end of his body. I just want to make sure nothing is wrong. Anything special or different whe na snake sheds? Any advice helps. Thanks.

Since it's a baby and since it's an albino you are able to see through it a little and will see dark spots. What you are seeing is probably the food inside his belly. That is normal.

Can you take pics? That would really help, like is it towards the tail? In the middle? In between? Is it the surface of the skin or under it? If under could be blood, could be an organ, could be food, teeny chance you have retained shed which is causing blood flow issues. To be safe I would give him a little soak or get him to go crawling through your hands with a damp wash cloth to be sure all the shed came off.
