Hey guys!
I picked up a few snakes locally after their owner got a new job and realized he didn’t have time. These babes are set up in quarantine with a heat lamp and thermostated belly heat. It’s only been a week but they were in rough shape, underfed, and dehydrated. The female pied had a red patch on her back that I attributed to live feeding, after she had settled I realized it was scale rot. All three snakes are eating f/t mice, and accept food readily.

What concerns me is that the pied has a wobble. Looks to me like a full on spider wobble, exacerbated when excited (I.e. during her treatment for scale rot).

When not excited she moves and acts fine. When excited or stressed she’s all over the place.


She is eating and otherwise acting normal, and when left un agitated she moves with a slight wobble (no corkscrews). With her coming from an unknown pairing is it safe to assume her wobble is genetic or would you be concerned?

She just soaked and had treatment for the scale rot, as you can see in the photos.
