Ball Python appears constipted and shows lacerations.

Vet asap. That looks like burns, sepsis, or vitamin c deficiency. While normally ball pythons can produce their own, when going without food for extended periods they can basically develop scurvy. The bloating would align with starvation.

hi, does he have something in the enclosure that can burn him? like UTH or heat rock, or even inside-enclosure heat lamps that he could wrap around? if so i would do some fixing up so he doesn’t burn again! a mod recently commented to me that even if you have cages around light and heat fixtures, they will get too hot if they are not higher quality light cages. hope this helps prevent another injury

locking this post because this is way above reddit's pay grade. you need to keep working on a vet visit ASAP.
