Hi. I am looking for some guidance in regards to a blood python that I have currently. I'm noticing serious dimpling of the scales. The thing is I'm not sure if this is dehydration or the pruning that is associated with being kept too wet. She is currently being housed in a cb70 on paper substrate with a suitably sized water dish with no hotspot. Room is between 80-82f and her body temp is usually around 83.8. The humidity is a bit on the high side at 70 - 80% but I would not expect such an effect from those levels of humidity. When she does urinate it is quite a lot, which would start to lead me away from believing it is dehydration. There is never any condensation in the enclosure and she does not feel wet. She is feeding well once a week on f/t small rat. I feed the rodents pretty wet so I know for sure she is getting some hydration. I've attached some photos, hopefully you can give me your opinion on what my best option is.





I appreciate any feedback.
