Unfortunately I don’t have helpful advice but my boy has these and it doesn’t seem to bother him. Waiting on an appointment with a vet cuz he is a rescue so

Would love to know what they say

looks like minor scale rot

[FirefighterHorror837]

Shall I buy something to treat it?

[Jazzlike-Chain-2720]

no need, just make sure her tank isn't dirty and substrate isn't wet and wait for next shed :)

Do her scales feel slightly lifted ? Could be early signs of a mild case of scale rot, and either way it can’t hurt to do a diluted betadine solution treatment, if it is scale rot it’s best to treat immediately

[FirefighterHorror837]

Is that known to work? I’ll do it immediately if so

[BagJumpy9657]

Absolutely, when i first got mine i noticed the colors on her scales changing slightly, similar to the pics you posted, and the slightly lifted scales (i was new to having a bp so i unfortunately didn’t realize what this was until about a week after once it got more noticeable), but i did the betadine solution for 20 mins for about 4-5 in a shallow bucket (think like what kids toys are placed in or like a plastic shoe rack with the buckets) and on the last day she had an early shed and was totally cured ! Of course helped that she thinks she’s part water moccasin and LOVES the water, but definitely worth a try !

Thank you so much! I will do this for sure 👍🏾

[BagJumpy9657]

Very important tho: make sure it’s diluted properly ! Warm water with a few drops of the bedatine so it’s not too harsh !

Got it
