    Re: Fluid Bubbles

    I’m in a FB group for ball pythons and there was a user there who recently posted about their experience with a malnourished rescue (baby) who developed these fluid pockets. The skin actually ended up breaking open/coming off. They said the snake had very little muscle tone and the parts of the skin with these bubbles felt thin and papery, like an elderly person’s. They had to take her out of her normal enclosure when she went into shed and put her in a shedding tub with only a damp towel so she wouldn’t rip open the wounds, but the last post I saw she was healing and improving. I don’t think they found out for sure what caused it, perhaps just the malnutrition. I hope yours ends up okay, it’s great that she’s getting taken care of.
