HELP > blood under scales

[zina10]

With this dry environment do snakes get Scale Rot? Thank God ive never delt with it, but i thought it was from moist places that hatbor bacteria? Has anyone heard if it effecting the eye?
Do you clean up any mess he/she makes right away or are you gone a lot?

It can also come from BP's sitting in their urates, whether on paper or substrate.

The rescues I got in that had scale rot, were usually kept in the typical "neglect" situations, bone dry enclosures, no optimal heat, no humidity. I have never had it in my own collection, just received it with rescues, but none of them were kept in wet conditions, although I'm sure that would make a better bacteria breeding ground ?

Hopefully the OP's snake doesn't have anything serious going on and with better husbandry, it will resolve.

edited to say, trying to find some sources, its interesting reading for sure !
