That is a burn from an unregulated heat strip or pad. Are there any heat controls on the heat source? If not, go to WalMart or Ace or Home Depot and ask for a lamp dimmer. It looks like an extension cord with a control button or slide on one end. The plug that goes into the wall has a place to plug in the heat source plug so you can control the heat. Many heat strips are WAY too hot and they will burn the snake who has little brain matter to tell him it is harmfull. I have seen Ball Pythons burned so badly that they did not survive. Be Careful!
