    Could be a stuck eye cap maybe? Can you get a pic of the eye?

    It looks like maybe he didn't really have a good shed last time and some was just a bit stuck. I wouldn't worry unless it's still there after his next shed or if it starts to look worse. When my girl had a bit of a messed up shed(she got stuck between two pieces of grapewood and rubbed some off while she was in the blue and some of the skin around that area didn't want to shed off) her scales were kinda wrinkely and flat looking in the area where it was rubbed off (and where it was stuck) like some of the ones on your ball's head, it went away completely after a couple sheds. Did you check the shed skin for eyecaps?

    No, i did not because when i pick him up from breeder he just finishin sheed, i was remove pieces of skin from his head, it was definitely bad shed process las time, that is my opinion.

    wait.

    one bad thing that can happen is that people think there is a stuck eye cap, and then they remove or damage an eye cap that is actually in use. and thats disastrous. also, stuck eye caps are only bad if several accumulate. one or two are no problem.

    wait for the next shed, and check the next shed if it has eye caps in it, or if the shed has holes where the eye cap should be.

    dont do anything unless you are 100% certain, with a shed as material evidence, that there actually is a stuck eye cap. i dont see a stuck eye cap in the images. and even then, you have weeks or months to figure it out, first thing i would do is to make sure the humidity is right and wait one more shed and hope that the next one goes better.

    and even if you are 100% certain that its a stuck eye cap, you have enough time to try the least invasive methods first. like letting her crawl arund in a moist pillowcase, or giving her a bath once a week.

    but i see some old scars on the top of the head. it seems to have healed long ago. looks like battle scars from live feeding.

    i would wait until after his next shed. when hes gonna shed next time maybe do a soak? or use the pillow case method just to help with the thick stuck shed pieces

    i think the old scars have healed. which means that what remains will most likely stay. maybe it will get better over the years, but i think the scars will stay. also, these scars on top of the head may make shedding more difficult. that would mean that you need patience, and that sheds may not turn out as well as they could on the first try.

    relax. it has no effect on the health, and there is nothing you can do. i have scars that will never completely heal, on my left index finger, on my right ring finger, and on my back. i badly burned my right hand a few years ago, it healed over the years and is no longer visible. scars are what they are, materialized memories of the past. dont worry.

    i dont know, i just have to post this music right here right now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTJ7AzBIJoI here it is. Best Regards. Your snake seems to be alright, really.

    Not scars.. they are dry scales.. it happens from time to time..nothing to worry about just wait and see the next time it sheds they will go away..
