    Exclamation Blister Disease?

    I am not sure but may snake may have blister disease. It has fluid-filled blisters on its sides and back, but not on the belly. They are not large at all and they seem to appear when the snake soaks. please let me know what this could be. thanks.

    Re: Blister Disease?

    No one can properly diagnose an animal via the internet. If you have a concern for your snake, you should take it to a vet ... if there is something wrong with him that is the ONLY way he is going to get better. If there is nothing wrong with him then you know for sure and all is good.

    Re: Blister Disease?

    I agree this can not be diagnosed on the internet, but by your description, it sounds like something I've seen in corn snakes before. The problem I saw was a result of the snake being too wet. Ball pythons need 60% humidity but the ground they live on should be dry.

    Get your snake to a vet.
