Well, in my opinion, the conditions of husbandry seem pretty good, and a 55-60% humidity doesn't sound bad either. Many snakes actually have a tendency to do this to some degree, it's just that black colored snakes with big scales seem to accentuate the dimples much more than a snake that has a lot of pattern and color to it. Indigos are pretty notorious for this as well. The color black just seems to display imperfections WAY more than other colors, just as a shiny black car will show every single flaw in the body work.



This is probably something that cannot be helped, but you could raise the humidity even higher by covering a larger portion of the enclosure, and adding some moist spagnum moss inside an open plastic box put inside the cage as well to see if this just MIGHT help some.
