What Do You Think???

Got a call the other night from a wholesaler I know... He said the snake was given to him with a mortal injury, but he seems to be healing up nicely.

The wound is healed on the top, but appears to still be open on the bottom. He told me that he was putting neosporin on it and that it seemed to be healing up fine... What is your opinion (sorry all I had was the phone)

Also, does anyone know what exactly he might be??? As far as morphs go... He starts out with a stripe, then had a motley in the middle, goes back to stripes, and almost aztec at the tail

Ouch!! That must have hurt! It does look like it has been a lot worse and has been healing well. Lots more healing to do though. Is it really open on the bottom, or is it a scab maybe?

He is an amel motley or motley/stripe.
Or another possibility is a creamsicle, but I'm not really good myself at recognizing those.

Thanks Katrien... I agree that it looks amazingly painful The bottom has sort of a scab, it is not open on the bottom, but the guy I got him from said that if I pulled it down that it was open (personally that sounds even more painful)

Im not really good at identifying that stuff either Im going to have to get some better pics too

That looks to be a motley/striped creamsicle corn (amel emoryi x amel corn). The dorsal pattern is idicative of this morph, as well as the patternless belly along with the pale orange coloration.

Wow!.....what a wicked injury it sustained!.......congrats on the TLC!

Good luck with it!

Yeah, he cant eat anything bigger than a fuzzy and even then, sometimes he needs help getting it down. Overall he is a super nice snake, just hope this wound heals up... He is in shed right now, so Ill have an update soon
