Are rough surfaces safe for BP's?

Hello everyone, i am back with another question. Long time ago i noticed i felt some rough scales on my BP, like under his chin, belly and on his back. They just felt uncomfortable to touch, but i couldn't notice any problem when i'd go to see the place that felt rough, the rough points are so tiny that are very hardly visible, should i worry? Could those be scars? I had and still have a log in the tub, so could the rough surface of the wood be the cause of some rough scales, and is it nothing to worry about?

Not sure about what you may be feeling on your snake, but rough surfaces, as long as not sharp, should be fine for your little dude.

I use cork bark in all my enclosures which I see the snakes on very often. It can also help them to start their shed if stubbornly sticking to them.

A log is okay, people often set up naturalistic enclosures with wood and rocks. I'm not sure on the rough scales but don't worry about it too much, it will likely heal over time.

I think I know what you mean by rough scales - sometimes by the time my BP is about to shed his belly scales will feel slightly rough/scraggy from being worn down a bit from slithering around. This is especially noticeable during periods of the year when he's more active and roaming around a lot at night.

It's totally normal and after your BP sheds his scales should be smooth again. It's fine to have rough (but not sharp) surfaces in the enclosure like bark, wood...etc. and it's helpful for your BP to have something rough to rub against when shedding. I'm sure your BP appreciates the extra enrichment from the log and different surface textures as well.
