Hello all, haven't been on here in many years, but i remember this as a good place to come and get good advice. I currently own a ball python thats about 9 years old. I bought a frozen rat today and it has a very strange sore on its shoulder that doesn't look good to me. I heard rats like to scratch a lot, especially if they have mites/lice, but this rat has been frozen so im not too worried about that. I am worried about what else this sore could be from and if it would be dangerous for me to feed it to my snake.
Heres some pictures, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
