There is definitely something wrong with you snake, is the eye still there or is it missing?

You just got it and you have it in contact with another snake BAD IDEA .Do you not QT new snakes? What if it had a disease?

The snake on the left?
I assume you said he is missing one eye?
Thats what It looks like to me. Or his other eye is swollen.

As far as not having one of his eyes, I'm sure the bp will be fine considering their eyes are'nt one of their most valuable senses. They mainly use smell and their pits to sense heat. I think he can flourish without one eye. As long as that socket is healed up he should do great :]

If you have more concerns you should bring the snake to a vet.

Looks like a Het Red Axanthic and looks very thin also it's about to shed. I'm not sure if there is something wrong with the other eye, It looks like a bug eye!

I think he looks fine. He needs his own space though, so he can properly thermo-regulate. He might be a little skiny, but that's nothing that can't be cured. I do think he has a stuck eye cap on the good eye. When you notice he's going into shed the next time get his humidity up to 70% and that eye cap should come off easy.

I would find out if there is a herp vet nearby just incase.
