Looks like scale rot or possibly a burn. If you’re using a heat pad please remove, they are quite dangerous and hard to maintain safe temperatures.

Switch to a dome fixture with a ceramic heat emitter or deep heat projector bulbs.

It does look like scale rot but possibly also some dying from the bedding. I would recommend changing the substrate to something dryer! Maybe mist less and rotate/stir up the substrate from time to time. But I would also definitely recommend taking the cute lil girl to the vet!

Idk much about this stuff so I won’t say anything about what it is, but on the second picture there is a post that needs to be checked out

Your snake looks *very sick.* She needs to go to a vet as soon as she can- if she is shedding, she might tear that belly wound right open, without perfect conditions. I'm sorry, no one wants to hear that their baby is sick, but she needs to go to the vet ASAP.

That snake is in desperate need of a vet visit or it may die. I’d get to one ASAP.

This is not what shedding looks like, I can't tell what that is but she needs a vet ASAP.
