It sure is. I just got back from the vet. I am fuming!!!!!!!

No injuries. Yes! Injured nose and healed bite ont he side.
Pefectly healthy. No! look at her poor belly.
Over 200o grams. Try 1700 hundred!

The only truthful statement from the guy was this is actually a female ball python.

She on treatment and has a follow up in a week.

The who sent this snake to me says he never noticed this because he is colorblind!:mad:

My son is very red-green color blind and he sees nothing wrong with the scales- no redness or discoloration at all, even in the last close-up picture :oops: I'm just sayin....

OO It makes sense now.

Looks like it's back to the vet.
Instead of clearing up, it's getting worse.:tears:

Yo Steve, Wait until she sheds to go back to the vet.. See what it looks like then.. Just Saying.

Exactly what I was going to do.:gj:
If it doesn't look any better after the shed, she'll go in.

that's what mine are going to the vet for tomorrow. :( im there with ya!

Wow; poor snake. I don't know enough about CBlindness to chime in on that.. but it is unfortunate that she is sick :(

oh that sux! I feel sorry for you I saw a little of that on my bp. Just one or two scales. Does it spread? hopefully not from what I have seen on mine it hasn't yet.

sometimes heat burns or the pink belly shed can look like scale rot. as long as your snake isn't sitting in water or on damp spots a lot, she/he should be fine. you can talk to your vet if you are concerned, betadine in a certain dilution can clear it up easily and can be bought at most drug stores. However, I'd talk to the vet first. sometimes the belly scales will change colors during a shed or injury that isn't related to scale rot- if it is gone within a week it's not scale rot.
