sounds like he was scared mostly. and i also think as long as the scales werent ripped off. snakes are pretty good at re-growing scales. when i first bought Romeo, most of his scales around his neck area were almost gone. i thought it gave him personality. but he kept shedding. he'd shed every other week. and his scales are now back to normal like anyother snake. i think maybe a mouse got ahold of him and ate some of his scales. i know when i first got him i was told to feed him live, but sometimes he wouldnt quite grab at the right spot and would "need assistance" squeezing the mouse. so now i feel f/t and hes just as happy. now, if the damage went all the way through his scales and to the skin. there might be a mark. but i'm sure you will love your critter regardless
