    Re: my bp problem

    That happened to the first snake I ever owned and it was caused by a UTH that wasnt on a thermostat and the snake also burrowed slightly and was right on top of the glass....

    Go To A Vet....

    It Is Not Scale Rot Externally.

    It Is An Internal Problem That Will Kill Your Animal If Not Treated Properly.
