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.
I just tried to feed my albino and he wouldn't eat and he has not eaten in 39 days. Thats not the problem and I wouldn't worry about a ball that hasn't eaten in 39 days. When I lifted his hide and saw his head I noticed these marks right behind his head on both sides and a small mark on top.
Its kind of blood red almot like an internal cut. Its not a bite because he hasn't seen a live meal since his 3rd feeding. Its not a burn. His setup is a 32 qt tub, one hide and a water bowl. I checked my herpstat and it was reading a high of 94.1 with a low of 93. Thats on the tape so its a little lower threw the tub and paper. Is a trip to the vet in order? The other 3 snakes in this rack are fine.
I would go ahead and take him to the vet. They will be able to scrape the area and view it under the microscope to see if it is fungal or bacterial or just an abrasion. Looks almost like a bad bruise from being restrained but I can't really tell from looking at pics online.
If he was mine I would take him in for the vet to check out. Good Luck!
It almost looks like he got his head caught inbetween something like a rack and the tub being slid shut. What ever it is I would say a trip to the vet would be worth it.
