so i posted this over in Ball forum and figured i would put it here as well see what anyone else though of it

several months ago (dont know exactly when) i had noticed an odd "flap" for lack of better word on my ball pythons eye. not a full eye cap but it looksed like half ane eye cap got stuck. so i upped the humidity a little and waited for a shed. once she shed the "eye cap" seemed to be taken care of... potential problem solved... or so i though, seeing how its back again now, i still thing it will go away again with next shed but why did it happen again? anyone ever see anything like this? here are some pictures

I do not believe that is an eye cap, it looks like the skin behind the cap, do not try pulling that off, wait for him to shed and see it rectifies itself, I had a retic mess up his eye and the skin in the crevice of the eye socket was sticking out a bit, this may or may not be the same thing.

yeah i know its not a regular eye cap, and am not gonna do anything with it yet. i have seen it before and like i said it went away with a shed. that was a while ago and a couple sheds later its back, so we will see what her next shed will do.

it just makes me wonder what it is and why it came back...
