belly problem

I have two together ..they have been together for awile 3 months at least the other has no signs ,,,the tank is not kept wet it is cleaned 2 a week has a water dish and moss box for humidity ..other then that it is dry i thought it might be too dry ...

he is a great eater he eats live

what are the temps at day and a night

Is he breeding, if not, he should be housed alone. The scab you are talking about, well I have never personally seen something like that, so I am purely guessing. Maybe the inside is irritated,obviously something is. It also sounds like it was cut. Again, just a guess..

Edit: Joe beat me to it!

I am not being rude here just point blank honest.Do you care about your snakes well being? If you answer yes here SEPERATE them! Ball pythons are NOT social snakes and only come together for breeding purposes.You keep saying the one eats what about the other one? Your snakes belly does not just become red and then scabe up for no reasons.What are you using as a substrate?

what dose he eat like rat pup hopper mice that could have scrach and got infected

he eats mice i watch them closley when the eat ... and i do care about my snakes i have over 8,000 invested in my snakes and their offspring ...they are social and can be kept together if you ever read a book on ball pythons it tell you to quarantine any new ones before intruducing them to other ones ..he is not contagious it has to do with either dry skin or shedding

Once again not being rude just honest.Do you think it is right to keep to many as you put it if you are not able to give each one there own enclosure? Do you have your own bed or do you sleep with numerous others(not meaning a boyfreind/girlfreind things here).Do live in your own home or do you share one home with the rest of your block? I am not trying to be your dad or tell you what or what you can not have,just pointing out some problems.
