My olive python recently shed, and it was a bit problematic (shed belly and sides, but not back) so I soaked her and got the rest off no problem. I've only just notices, but she has white patches on her belly scales, near the edges. In close proximity to the white is a light pink shade, which is also present around her cloaca. She still eats fine and recently did a massive poo no trouble, I'm just wondering what this white stuff is and if I should be concerned.

Any help is very much appreciated, I have attached a photo to show the scales.IMG_3265.jpg
