    BP with Bleeding scales?

    I just sold a BP to a couple who said they knew what they were doing but called me today to say that her scales were bleeding and her mouth was open. she was completely healthy when I had her a couple of days ago and has had no problems for a long time. she did at one point have internal parasites but I took her to the vet and got her cured (that was about 8 months ago) and she had just eaten a couple of days ago too. if she was sick she wouldn't have eaten. I think maybe these people made her tank to hot and she got burned? I have never had these issues with her or any other snake I've ever had and have never even heard of this happening before. any advice or help would be great!

    Re: BP with Bleeding scales?

    With out knowing seeing the snake or knwoing the setup I doubt if any one can be of much help. It could be a burn or dehydration or a cut and RI could be anything, poisoning. Best bet get it to the vet.
