Hi, could anyone tell me if this is scale rot? I just noticed it on him while handling him and its the first time I'm seeing this. It's a little bump and feels dry like a scab, could it be just a abrasion from nose rubbing or a wound from prey? I feed him live mice but so far I haven't seen him sustain any wounds nor the rat managing to get close to his head while he's constricting but I'm fairly new to this so any advice would help
I noticed there was some black gunk in one of his nostrils as well but its pretty in there and I can't get a good photo of it
