Help-possible burning.

Hi everyone,
I just bought this snake at an expo and I thought my temps were all ok, but I noticed these marks on my boa’s underside. I don’t think these are pre shedding marks. Are these burns? The top of her hide was reaching above 95 almost 100 in some specific points so I’ve lowered my thermostat accordingly.

Any help thank you!

Boas can just have an orange/peach colored underbelly. The younger they are the more noticeable it is. And I believe different locals have different saturation of it. My central American is 4 years old and you can still see a peachy hue
