Strange scales

[Allison]

I was celebrating Cortez's fresh shed when I found this on his back near his tail. Is this scale rot? If so, does anyone have any good treatment forms?

Those look like scars to me. Has he been fed live?

Not sure, I got him as an adult in '00. He had a round of scale rot a few years ago.. do you think that could be what left the scars?

i agree that it looks like a scar. my snake has similar scales on his neck from a tape accident (newbie mistake). and if he isnt acting strangely and is still eating then i dont think i'd worry.
