Broken ribs??

[Bogertophis]

My snake is slightly underweight, is it possible that I've overreacted and those are just how her ribs look?

I've checked her again and those imprints seem to be all along her spine only when she curls up.

I thought it was in one localized area, but I was mistaken.

Or is it dehydration?
If it's the latter what can I do about it?

I don't want to rule out fractured ribs, so I'm still going to take her to the vet for an x-ray.

Could her ribs be fractured all along her body?

She still takes her meals perfectly.

It's really important for you, as the snake's owner/keeper, to pay close attention to any new symptoms that show up. If you're now realizing this "issue" is all along her body, I'd lean toward her being underweight &/or somewhat dehydrated- it sounds like "loose skin" is what you're actually seeing. It's very unlikely she'd have that many broken ribs- And eating is a great indication that all is well (but not a guarantee).

Here's the dilemma you now face: only a vet can rule out fractured ribs, but IF you take her to the vet, the stress "may" cause her to stop eating for a while- no telling how long. So it's up to you. As an experienced snake keeper, my personal decision may be different than yours- that's okay too. There's many "gray areas" in herpetoculture.
