    Eye looks "scaley" - help please?

    my bp doesnt have a dented eye but i recently realized that one of his eyes looks "scaley."
    could this be a pre shed condition or a humidity thing?

    i thought that i would add to this post instead of add another.

    help, im kinda concerned.

    Re: Dented eye

    Hi,

    You'd probably get more and faster replies in a new thread. I could probably try and move it if you don't want to repost but we will try and get you some info here while we wait.

    Is it only on one eye and is it possible for you to get pictures?

    Is it more of a cloudy/milky appearance or silvery?

    When did your snake last shed and did it get both eyecaps off ok?

    Re: Dented eye

    that would be cool if you could repost.

    it shed a little over a month ago, both eye caps shed off easily. it just the one eye and its not quite milky it just looks "scaley."

    thanks

    Re: Dented eye

    As in there are little tiny, tiny, wrinkles that take away from a globular appearance, but is still perfectly clear? If so, try a little more humidity as well. 60%. Sometimes one of my snakes here or there will get an odd look. Goes away with the next shed.

    Otherwise, post a nice clear pic and we may be able to further narrow it down.

    yes they are little tiny wrinkles and the eye is still clear, i will try more humidity to see if that helps.

    it hasnt been to active lately so i feel a shed coming on soon. last shed was closer to 2 months ago.
