Ah, I understand. Awareness still needs to be raised, though. The local vets I went to had never heard of it. Also, I never knew they made their own vitamin C. It'd make sense of how far it'd go down if they're stressed and mistreated. Dave is probably still a little stressed because of his limited environment. I don't want to put bedding in just yet and all he has is a tight log he likes to squeeze himself into. I know these snakes love to have three walls they can press against so I made sure to give him that.
But!
Dave just finished shedding and I'll try to get pictures as soon as possible. He looks so smooth and healthier. The tears are slowly becoming scars. Also, my parents keep mistaking him for my female ball python, Medusa, who is about the same size but she's only a year old. She's a big girl. I don't know her weight off the top of my head but she's pretty thick for being young. Which is weird because she's the pickiest eater. But, they keep mistaking the two because Dave is getting chubbier. It's so good to see him like this.
