Hello there, last night I noticed a little white thing under Colin's left eye. Looks like a tiny spec of dust or something. There's nothing similar under is right eye.
This is the best pic of it I could get......


Any idea's what it could be? Anything to be worried about.

I've also been wondering for a while about some discolouration on his white bands....

Is this anything to worry about or is normal as he matures?

Many thanks,

Justin

No idea what the spec by his eye is, but it is common for some snakes to change their colourings slightly as they get older.

The white spec doesn't appear to be anything to worry about but you could try rubbing it gently with a cotton bud.
I think GirlHarry is right to say that the bands changing colour is just natural, sometimes Sylars white bands go dull and then come back again.
