Hi
I've noticed some of my cornsnakes scales have (literally overnight) looked damaged and rough. In particular one scale in the middle of the top of his head sticking up, I've only seen him shed once and the scale on his head stuck up a few days before he shed last time. Anyone else's snake do this ? Or is it damage ? He hasn't been anywhere but viv and my hands.
Thanks |

it's just a rub, maybe from over zealous shedding behaviour or from trying to get somewhere he shouldn't be!
it should resolve itself in a shed or two and there's nothing you need to do with it |
