My snake went behind the fire (wasnt on) He only shed few days ago so all nice with a fresh coat of paint. But he was stuck when he pulled him self out he has scuffed his scales about half inch from his head. Is there anything i should do ? there is no blood and he still roaming around like a nutter. |

if its just scuffed scales i wouldn't even bother cleaning him, he will sort himself out within the next shed or two |

yeah i lost the b****y whitesided ratsnake when i opened his tub to feed him last night, he's back safe and sound but they're so damn quick, i really hate hatchies!!!
and as for any treatment, as per lotabob above ^^ the scuffs should shed out in a bit of time |

Just dont let it free roam, too much chance of losing them or them injuring themselves they can suddenly bolt and you'll have no chance of stopping them. |

If its not an open wound just give it a quick clean with warm water, dry it again and leave it alone, any damage will shed out and the scales have done their job protecting the snake. |
