    Loose skin

    Near my ball pythons neck/throat area looks like a little loose skin. I never seen this before. Is this due to dehydration? I can't offer any pictures right now, my camera doesn't take good pictures in the dark. I'll post some tmrw If that'll help. Btw, If this helps any, he is in the process of shedding.. But still, even when he shedded before, I never seen this on him. Idk, I hope he is ok, I'm really worried..

    Re: Loose skin

    I've seen it before during a shed as well. I'm guessing it's just the layer of skin loosening from the new skin. Nothing to worry about unless the area starts to look raw. Just keep husbandry spot on, and I forsee no problems.
