Ok so heres the story. A guy has a 16 year old,buys a ball loses interest and i saw the ad in the paper, complete set up with snake for 50 dollars. Needless to say i went and checked it out and decided to get it. he seems to be in good health. He had just shed and the shed was in his log. The shed was complete eye caps and all. A few issues with the husbandry tho as his UTH was just pluged in and not being monitired and there was no humidty guage in the tank either and only one hide on the warm side. All that has been adressed tho!



Ok so here are my concerns. One of his eyes is indented a lil bit and I can not remember what i saw on here that causes that so i wanted to post this in hopes that i learn what this is caused from so that i can quickly address the problem and fix it if possible.

There is also what appears to be a spot on the top of his mouth where it looks like he had been rubbing it or a possible bite from the live prey that they have been feeding him. Attempts will be made to get him eating frozen rats instead of the live mice they were feeding him aswell.



I am totally stoked to have my first ball and although i didnt get himfromthe breeder as i hoped this was just to good to pass up. Thanks for any advice you can give on the eye or anything else!



Sorry for the long post and i will hopefully have some pictures later on tonight! :D
