    Re: Help! Is this a blister, tick or mite?

    I have never heard of that happening, but it certainly does look like a blood blister. I would just keep an eye on that. If that is what it is and it "pops" it will be a open wound and you should probably keep the snake on paper towels for now, and keep the enclosure extra clean.

    If it does open, put some Neosporin (without pain relief) on it.
    Thanks I thought it might be a blister also. I did try and wipe it off but it is under a layer of skin.

    Thanks for the advice, I am going to clean her cage again tonight i'll put her on paper.
