Help~my ball python neck scale does not look right

[dakski]

Agree except I think you meant to say "antiseptics", not "antibiotics"? And may I suggest using Vetericyn- it's a topical made for snakes...water-based, not petroleum-jelly-based like most ointments for humans, & fyi, if you use too much of them on snakes it can cause their scales to de-laminate, making for terrible sheds.

Thanks Bogertophis. I think you are correct.

Yeah, just stay away from the painkilling stuff.
