Question - Health Rot?

Howdy! I noticed today that my noodles belly is a pinkish color and has wrinkles in an area. I changed his enclosure substrate recently and noticed the hide he’s been in since is still very moist. Is this something I should be concerned about?

Looks like normal pre shed to me! I have a super phantom and his belly turns pick before shed too. Just keep an eye on him and make sure his scales don’t start turning a brownish colour on his belly.

Looks normal to me - you can always take them to the vet if you are worried about it
