I have never heard of a healthy Ball that drooled a lot. What makes you say he is healthy? Has he been to see a herp vet?

BP don't drool!

Increased salivation can be mouth rot, which need to be treated with anti-biotic

Either way no one can diagnose online so an appointment with a Herp vet is in order http://www.arav.org/USMembers.htm

Ouch; I think that snake definately needs to see a qualified herp vet. This is not normal.

thank you very much everyone! i found out that ickus has mouth rot. The butthead that sold him to me was no help. thank you again

What did your herp vet suggest as a course of treatment for the mouthrot? Are the snakes living one per enclosure or together?
