    Butter ball missing scale

    I bought a butter ball python off of craigslist about two weeks ago. The guy said he got him off of kingsnake and the dealer was selling him as an 2015. The snake look very skinny and had some shed on his head and some here and there. Since I got him he's been pounding rat pups and doing better, well today was his first shed in my care and I notice he's missing a scale in the middle of his head. Will this be a problem for the snake? Should I have any concernes for him?

    If you look right in the middle of his head that's were the missing scale is.

    Ok cool, I'm just starting out with BPs and didn't know if that'll hurt the snake or not. Thanks
