    Betadine and would it help?
    My snake has those markings on the spine that ive been talking about. Would betadine help? Has anyone ever used it on there snake? If so how much. I know no one here is a vet but maybe someone has some info about it. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...c0ed5d6eb9.jpg

    I can't really tell from the pic but and I have no business even guessing what it could be but do the eyes look crinkled? What stage of the shed are you in ... I guess I would wait to see what happens in shed if it's for sure going to be soon if not I'd seek another, preferably reptile expert, or vet opinion. I don't think I'd give anything without it being recommend but I don't know enough to just do that.

    Her eyes just cleared up and some parts of the body is shedding off. The place i took her is the best around over a hour drive one way. The markings feel like scabs

    Hmmm I don't know what to say but it sounds pretty urgent if it's getting worse and it sounds like a rough shed ... Should come off in a full piece like a sock. Have you been using any cleaning products or anything? I honestly don't feel comfortable guessing but I would seek further help.

    I use bioshield 75 to Clean her cage. Other then that no. And its ok its all just imput. Maybe someone has been the this or sees something i don't. All options are welcome and helpful. I would take her back but like o posted before the vet said it bacially be a waste of money til after she sheds to see what it looks like after

    Yes but by the sounds of it the shed didn't go as planned and the issue got worse ? 😕 I hope an expert comes along and gives some advice but seems to me lots of people are hesitant to diagnose through a picture. Good luck

    Yes unfortunately all we can go off of is a picture. Her last shed was very bad. Pieces everywhere. Was told it was due to being milnurioused and way under fed to the point u can see her spine and ribs. No matter what i did it was just bad. Hope this one is better.

    At first I thought it could be the dye from the substrate. Are you using Reptibark? I would put her onto a paper towel substate right away and monitor her closely at the next shed. If the spotting is less, I would think it's something in the enclosure. If it gets worse you may be dealing with a illness. Then the return to the vet will be the right thing. All we can do on the forum is speculate which often times delays approprate care. The vet said to return if the spots get worse, I would take his advice.
