This is my first BP and i decided to get one from craigslist. When I went to meet the guy it was obvious he wasn't taking very good care of it and he said he had only had it for about a week so he didn't really know much about it. The snake is still a pretty little guy though. I decided to take him even though he was a little messed up because I didn't want him to be mistreated anymore. That might not have been the smartest idea though since I don't know very much about snakes. When I first got him he just had a few spots on him that didn't look quite right like maybe he was burned or something he also has a spot under his head that's raised and slightly discolored and one scale on his belly that's mostly not attached. Then a couple days after I got him some of his scales raised up on his sides, not on the bottom, and are like poking up, and some of them are white underneath. some of his other scales just seem loose like if you run your hand down him they come up. I don't have any pictures right now but when I get home I'll try to take some and post them. The hot side is high 80 low 90s not sure what the cool side is though and I haven't gotten a humidity checker yet either. I will probably have to take him to the vet but just wanted to check on here first.
