    Re: EMERGENCY | My Ball Python's Scales Just Split

    For those who are wanting an update for Dave:

    I don't know if I already posted about it but we finished off Dave's Vitamin C shots. I still give him vitamins with his food and he's still eating good. All of his gashes have scabs on them but as he slithers around and possibly rubs against thing, they peel off a bit but they're still staying on. I'm also just about out of antibiotic cream and it says that it's only supposed to be applied for about 30 days so I think that'll be the only tube. He's going for a check-up today and we'll see what the doctor says.

    I am also taking a damp rag and trying to wet the area around his gashes where it is super dry so I can hydrate it a bit better. I'm being careful not to get moisture in his exposed skin but his scales are so dry and cracked that I don't think humidity will be good enough, especially with a paper material meant for cages being the bedding.

    I'll note everyone on how the appointment goes.
