Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

IN NEED OF HELP
It's Augusts 29th 2-3 days ago noticed this on myball python (image included)
Have not changed his tank design or heating pads ETC since I got him about a year ago have not had any problems tell 2-3 days ago when he had a problem shedding I thought it was a humidity problem because Calgary can become very dry at times so I added more frequent moisture to his cage , some tell me it is a thermal burn and some tell me it is scale rot , seeing that both are potential I am asking for more opinions
Because his belly scales all along his body seem like a thermal burn the end of this tail has some what scabbing like infection occurring so I'm not sure how to diagnose the problem

I would suggest a vet. But until you can find one, Neosporin works wonders! Change out his bedding to paper towels and keep them as dry as possible.

What kind of heat are you using? That looks like a burn.
If you have a heat pad is it regulated by a thermostat?

Make sure not to use the one with pain killer in it.
