Ball Python Injury

Advised to go to the vet... and DID IT?

Congrats on doing the right thing and gl with the recovery!

That's a rough looking wound. Best of luck on a quick and complete heal.

My mojave got the same injury about a year ago but was much smaller than that. I still don't know how she did it. It didn't tear all the scales off (it was like a flap) but you could see the pink underneath. I used Neosporin without pain killer and after a couple of sheds it healed up nicely, can hardly even notice it. Good move though on getting it to the vet, a wound that big should definitely be seen by a doctor :)

Poor baby!!

I'd take him to the vet and get that stitched up.

Good luck =)
