RE: scale removal during shed?

To tell you the truth I have no idea why, but it could be the result of injury or hard shed(low humidity during shed). My snakes always shed in one piece, so I was shocked when this happened. I assumed he injured himself and this was the result.
Like I mentioned earlier, he is fine today, and I can barely identify the scale that was lost.
good luck
