Missing or Dulled scales

This must have happened at night because it wasn't like this when I went to bed. This was just from him rubbing his head too hard against a surface while trying to take his shed off I guess. And it gets fixed at his next shed if I'm not mistaken, can anyone confirm?

Sorry for the quality, I took them with my camera phone because my batteries are dead on my digital camera.

in that picture it doesn't look like your missing any scales but it does look like your bp has a stuck shed on her head. What i recommend doing is get a plastic tub like on your housing your snake in fill the tub up enough to submerge the snakes body but not to much so that the snake floats. If your snake floats you have to much water and should drain it to the recommended amount. Leave the snake in the water for o 20-30 minutes. then come back with a towel or something like a towel and have the snake slither through it.

Btw make sure the water in the tub is luke warm around 79degrees.

I know cause the quality is bad it looks like a stuck shed. But if you look from the side, the dull spot is actually lower than the scales next to it. So I know it's not left-over shed.

And funny you should mention that because I actually do that for him after ever shed to get any left-over skin off, and I cleaned him about an hour ago. He is completely void of left-over shed.

hmm so the scales on his head that are dulled are lowered. maybe some type of scale rot:confused:

If it is from rubbing then next shed or the one after that should clear it up.

ive had that hapen but not as extreme as yours, cleared up next shed no prob
