PLEASE HELP!!! Damaged scales on belly!!!

[MuicyJelon]

I'm really not seeing anything on his tummy...I believe what some think looks "pinkish" is just some of his blood circulation that shows thru his pale color.
Does his tummy color look different now to you than it did before???

Many albino snakes look pink when born or hatched for that reason. And BPs nearing a shed often have a pinkish tummy too. A burn should be seen by
a vet, so they can prescribe a topical cream (Silvadene) to assist healing & whatever else may be needed, but you don't need that as far as I can tell.

I'm trying to guess why he's so drawn to the heat guard...is that his only source of heat or is there UTH? Maybe his temps need to be re-visited?

Not the only one. I use an oil heater to keep the ambient temp stable, especially as it’s getting colder.
I’ll be removing the CHE and replacing it with a rep radiator. Not comfortable knowing he likes to wrap round the guard.
