spurs

do the spurs on a ball python grow back? because my male ball python lost one. i don't know how! but do they grow back?

i've never actually heard of them losing them

if he's an older bp the age coulda worn them out if hes not old them i dont know man got me ask someone else :) and i dont think they grow back. but who knows

If your snake did indeed loose a spur, it will not grow back. With that said, my best bet would be that he lost the retained shed that typically sticks on the spurs. Most ball pythons that I look at have 2 or more layesr of stck shed on the spurs, and when that stuck shed is removed, people are amazed at how small the actual spurs really are. I would say take a closer look, and you may find that the spur was never lost to begin with.

Haha - you should have seen my face when Tim proceeded to remove the stuck shed on Spenser's spurs a few weeks ago. Like he said - do you ever see spur shed in your sheds?
