    Re: How common are Tub Rub injuries

    I got it. Here are are couple pics of his wound. These were taken before any ointment was applied.

    Poor thing, yes just looks like a rub, should heal fine, doesn't look all infected at least

    Re: How common are Tub Rub injuries

    I first realized it when I found a piece of stuck shed on his head. When I was trying to remove that - I saw the wound. This is the first time I've ever had one of my snakes get one of these. I hope he improves quickly.

    - - - Updated - - -

    What is that weird spot on the opposite side of his head. Looks like an open space without scales. Never notices that before either. Is that normal.

    It may have been from a rub before

    Re: How common are Tub Rub injuries

    I have never seen any sores or injuries on him and inspect my snakes every day. It's a mystery for sure.

    Re: How common are Tub Rub injuries

    Ah right so you hadn't noticed it before, that's strange, I was wondering whether it was an old injury.
    is there any thing that could of pinged a scale or two off a branch etc

    Re: How common are Tub Rub injuries

    No, he has no branches in his cage. He is in an AP 4ft cage with an RHP for heat, a water bowl, a few fake green plants. He is kept on Uline Kraft Paper.

    I will keep up on ointment and hope he clears up. If not - off to the vet we go.

    Doesn't look infected and weeping at least
    Should heal no problem, just frustrating isn't it, good luck
