A friend of mines ball python has not eaten in the last two months. We figured it had just slowed down because of the winter months, but I dont think this is the case anymore. Today I was looking him over to see if I notice anything out of the ordinary and I did. I opened his mouth up a bit and noticed his 2 front fangs were brownish black. Im now almost postive this is why he hasnt been eating. I was wondering if this was mouth rot or another kind of infection?Im planning on taking him to the vet this week but if anyone can help me out a little on recognizing what wrong it would be greatly appricated, thank you.
