| My girlfriends 7 month old snow corn has a slight dark patch on her side bout 2inches down from her head, does this sound like it could be a burn? I'm sorry I can't give you anymore info than that, she's just a little worried about her. |

| I don't know, tbh, but when I handle Shadrach, who's the same age, I can see some of his organs through his white belly scales. I know snow corns are like little pink worms at that age so it could well be that her skin's transparent (I got my snow stripe as a young adult so don't know what a young one looks like close-up.)Is it possible to get a pic of her? |

Its impossible getting a pic of her, she just doesnt stop moving! She actually fell of the bed earlier she was squirming that much! I've googled some pictures that it looks like, sorry but this is the best pic i can find...
She's got a couple of em a little bigger than that... |

Ah, you mean on her belly? Sorry I was thinking you meant her side ...yes, that is just like Shadrach's belly, as long as her scales are nice and normal and 'slippery', she's fine I reckon. Know what you mean, at that age they're into everything. Bless her! |

It certainly sounds like it to me. I wish I could get a pic of Shadrach to show you but have the same problem with him wriggling. I had my ghost corn, Spooky, from a tiny hatchling but can't remember if I saw the same thing with her.
Any worries, you could always ask the shop, but it does sound normal to me. Perhaps there is someone on here who's also got a small corn, or who's bred snow corns and can confirm it, or you could try posting on TCS, there are plenty of breeders on there and they're helpful.
All the best with her. |

| U can see through baby snow corns skin lol sometimes u can see through the top of them aswell in right light if there is more than one and they are black then sounds normal. If it was just one and it is green could be a problem tho cause might mean a ruptured gall bladder but thank god it sounds like urs is fine |

I know it sounds horrible but when i found my first corn snake dead he was all green near his mouth and on parts of his body, do you reckon that was a ruptured gall bladder? I've always wanted to know why he died...
Yeah its more than one patch and they're a dark greyish black colour, like in that photo ^^ |

| If he had the green blotches then it probably was. It just happens to some unlucky snakes, nothing can stop it and it isn't caused by anything |
