I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me out or explain what may be happening with one of my proven coastal tigers. I just moved back to chicago a few months ago and had started to notice what looked like little bubbles or pockets of liquid popping up on his skin every so often and then they would go away. Then about 2 weeks ago I seperated him from the females I have been breeding him with and had noticed the ( bubbles of liquid ) again. Only this time there's more of them. He has been with 2 females in the past 2 months or so and that's when I noticed the issue again. I have had the hardest time trying to retain humidity in the enclosurres/snake room. Could humidity be the cause of the (bubbles)? Please help if you have any answers......

bubbles on my coastal tiger

Are these bubbles on his head/mouth area only? or is it all around his body?

Humidity doesn't matter for carpets, I'd let it dry out for a while. I'm assuming the bubbles on the belly scales?

There weren't any bubbles near the head or mouth ; but mainly on the dorsal and sub-dorsal area. The issue was solved . I took him away from his last female to get some much needed rest from copulating almost 4 females. Once I did this he had a full shed w/no tears and I was able to raise the humidity a bit in the reptile room. Everything looks normal; he didn't have any scarring due to what ever those bubbles really were. Does anyone know a definate cause of what happened with this case. Its never happened before in over 6 years.So I'm a bit confused as to what actully was the cause of the (bubbles).Thanks for the comments....
