A friend IM'd me tonight freaking out because her young ball python has what seem to be air pockets under its skin. I had her send me a picture and of course, knowing nothing, told her that I'd ask around because I don't want to try and diagnose, etc. She said she's had the snake since December, but was away for 2 months recently with her mom caring for the snake. She just noticed it, and apparently the snake acts/eats like normal and doesn't react when the spots are touched. I did tell her that if she was really worried to talk to a herp vet, but I wanted to ask here as well to see if anyone had suggestions.
Not sure how to get the image bit to work, once I figure it out I'll edit! In the meantime:
