I am feeling more and more clever  |

If it looks fully healed then it should be fine- the main thing with scars is something called adhesions, were the insides can become stuck to the newly formed scar tissue etc, tho if the snake seems in good health then I think it should all be fine. |

Try getting a photo of it and posting it for GingerPony and the other experts to look at, that way they can hopefully reassure you with actual evidence to go off. xxx |
