Yeah your right i couldn't word the scales in between his eye at the time because snakes don't have eyelids haha (Which is the only word i could think of at the time). Darn i really wish i took a pic of him watching South Park though because it was indeed cute. The main concern though is my ball python is EXTREMELY head shy. Me putting a tweezer anywhere near his head is comparable to water boarding him. Is that my last option, a friend in real life basically told me to wait for it to come out and gave the example of a splinter working it's way out the skin. I just want some advice on how to work on a snake whose extremely head shy?Originally Posted by Coluber42
It should be no problem to just remove the little bit with tweezers, or with your fingers if it's big enough to grab. It's probably not "in" his eye, just sort of lodged in the little fold of skin between the spectacle and the neighboring scales.
Also, just to be on the safe side, you should probably post a pic of your snake poking his head out from under a blanket to watch South Park. You know, just to make sure we get enough cute snake pics today.
