the flaking is sort of like that but on the belly scales. its doing exactly what my other snake did before she devoloped scale rot. i noticed on my other snake, while giving her her shots the other day, that she did have that exact flaking on her top scales, it is weird though because she is in the process of a regular shed.
the bottom scales on both snakes after flaking seem to look dry and rough.
ive been soaking them normally! i am stumped!!
