Wrinkles on new BP

[ckenney35]

So I finally got my blue eyed Lucy and I'm a bit worried about some wrinkles she's showing. Need some pointers on what if anything might be wrong

Not seeing an issue. The folds in her skin show up more than on normal-pattern BPs- & they're every bit as serious as the folds in your hands & elbows.
She could probably gain a bit of weight, but it's nothing to worry about.

I kind of figured the needing to gain some weight. I'm sure petco wasn't feeding her properly so I've been offering her a mouse on Saturdays and a pinkie on Tuesdays to try and get her to gain some weight

I see no issues whatsoever. A few properly sized meals and she'll be looking great.

What size mice are you offering? And pinkies for a BP are basically useless. They are essentially all water. Offer one appropriately sized meal per week and she'll be fine.

Is that a black eyed or blue? That stripe looks odd for a blue. Doesnt look bad, maybe a bit dehydrated and could put on some weight but nothing severe. White snakes just tend to show any little wrinke or folded scales after theyve been balled up.

I wouldn't bother with pinkies , anyways far too small .

Depends on what sized mice you are feeding her tbh .

Maybe you'd be better increasing the mouse size and then after a few more feeds - if she's still a tad wrinkly I'd consider giving her a short soak ( read up carefully first on the method) - just in case she's a little dehydrated- as mentioned previously.

Offering her what id call a juvenile mouse. It's just what I get at the local feed store that sells feeder mice. The mouse is never larger around than she is.

How often should I be feeding her then. The store I get my mice told me to feed her the pinkie in between main feedings just as a ex tra boost to help her gain weight

So the place I bought her from said she is a blue eyed however looking at her eyes she looks like ahe has black eyes. I know she's not a 'perfect' leucistic because you can kind of see a pattern at the top of her spine but she's my baby lol
