    My big male BP has a big scar on his face in that same place, its strange looking. I have no idea what its from or how he got it, and I don't think the previous owner knows either.. I haven't had any problems with it though.



    My hog island boa was scratching her face against one of her hides and rubbed both sides of her jaw raw before I noticed it, after some neosporin and removing the hides they healed right up.

    ouch.. thats a bad one!!!

    Thanks for sharing that pic. I might just be removing her hide too.. no one else in the big female gets a rack besides her and everyone else does just fine hiding under newspaper

    my bp just went thru a shed and has a small bloody spot on the bottom of her midpart. it looks like a scale came off. is that normal? there isn't anything sharp enough around her as i haven't found a hide that i like yet.

    Hahaha, nice.

    Just looking at the picture I have to say that is a pretty cool scar, old war wound to tell the buddies. A minute after seeing it, though, I felt really bad because of the pain it must have gone through. Poor baby *hugs and kisses* i always feel bad when animals are hurt.

    My boyfriend's bp (the one I fostered and re-homed to him) has the same size and location scar on his forehead. I wonder if this is typical?
