    New BP! Question about scales/divots!

    I feel like this should be titled, "Oops, I did it again," ha. I don't know if pieds or BEL's are my favorite, but now I have one of each.

    This little 2018 girl arrived today, and I noticed that she's got several tiny dents/divots on her body. Are these missing scales or something else? Harder for me to tell on a white snake.

    Other than that she seems to be in good shape, just super tiny weighing in at a whopping 72 gm. Name TBD.

    likely just bent scales from how the snake likes to curl up in the hide. no worries, perfectly normal.
