WOW I wished you live here in Louisiana. I would take her and to LSU Vet

That looks like a mixture of burns and scale rot.
Poor baby.

See if there are any local reptile rescues in your area.

eather that or she cut her self on the crack then got rot from the nast cage. Or the crack could have torn up the scales which lead to the rot. but this is nasty eather way. I hope you can get your friend to let yall take her to the vet.

Great Idea!!

I found a couple and call them up tomorrow! Thank you!
there is still however the issue of the owner giving up the snake.
If he seriously let his bp get his bad. How much does that snake really mean to him?

[Generationshell]

There is no telling what happened first such as burn,cut,scale rot....and then what followed... But we have all seen the result :/

[Generationshell]

Okay I called around and found someone from the South Texas Herpetology Association that does rescues and knows a guy who would take the snake in and get it to a vet.
Great news except I know have to convince them to give it up.
Oh Lord please help me... I know I'm sticking my head where i shouldn't but idk....
My mom told me just to drop the whole thing....

The snake needs help! Since the owner obviously does not know how to car for it and can not afford to pay someone to tell them how, they need to give it to someone that knows how to care for it or can afford the help it needs.

[Generationshell]

The Person I talked to said she had given this guy (she would gve this bp) a rescue that had a huge chunk of skin cut out of it, and he rehabilitated it.
I just don't understand if you can't afford to care for the pet why wouldn't you give it up to someone willing to give it the best they can?

Call animal control.

Here's the thing: If you call Animal Control or a similar group on a neglect case, and show them the pictures as evidence, they WILL go in there and TAKE the snake from this person. He/she will NOT have a say in the matter. They will be charged with serious neglect and fined/have to appear in court. Personally, I think that's the best thing you can do for this poor animal. Don't try to "convince" your friend. FORCE them. I hate to badmouth people's friends, but the poor girl doesn't deserve this horrible neglect and suffering because of an owner that's too selfish or incompetent to do the right thing.

If you're not willing to do this, then judging from what I've read in this thread about your "friend's" personality, this snake will die.
