did you "pick it up" at a pet shop?? from the wild? What kind of snake is it? Can you clarify what you mean by "the scales are falling in? Do you have a digital camera to post pictures?

Look at the main page of the forums. Look above where it says "Herp Health Forum" and post you question there.

Make sure to list the answers to the questions I asked on the previous post like:

1)What kind of snake is it?
2)size ?
3)Did you acquire the snake from the wild or from a pet shop?
4)and a better description of the problem

If you don't do this then knowbody will be able to help you.

Good Luck!

Please - open your eyes and solve at least one, tiny problem on your own - find the Herp health forum using your own wits.

Sorry to be so blunt,
