    Ball Python Dry Scales
    Hi, I got my first Ball python after about a minth and a half of research and building it a proper enclosure, and when I got it home I noticed two dry scales on it's head, one in the middle between the eyes, and on on the right side of it's nose. I was just curious what to do, because I wasn't sure if it was possibly a sign of shedding, it wasn't listed as oen anywhere I checked, and I wasn't sure if it was a sign of improper humidity at the pet store.
    Any help will be much appreciated.

    Hi,

    Pics would help but I suspect it's nothing to worry about.

    Sometimes when they shed the top layer of the new scale can get "stuck" and comes off with the old skin.

    It should go away with the next shed. :gj:
