Listen to that advice about hydrating the snake. It needs more than a drink - it needs to be in a deli cup soaking in about 1/4" of water set near a heat pad (not completely over the heat pad, but just on the edge so some heat gets in on one side of the cup.)
Dehydration is a major cause of problems in baby snakes. And that snake looks bad. On the bright side, I've seen babies like that recover on occasion.
It seems whoever sold you this snake was not doing you any favors. This happens too often unfortunately.
