I picked up a little red tail boa last night. I wasn't planning on getting him, but I offered a lady $20 for him and she took it. I was planning on getting one more boa in the future, but not this soon. I've named him Emette.

But now I think I might know why. I looked him over last night and didn't see any mites, or other health issues, but when I looked him over today, I saw that he looked impacted? I soaked him for 45 mins, but nothing happened. The masses are REALLY solid, so I'm just wondering if it's something worth seeing the vet over, or if it's just something to keep an eye on.

Here's some pics:



And two cute pics:
