My python is about 9-10 months old and 3 feet long. Just recently a larger- small rat attacked him after he went for the rat. the rat kept biting his back. luckily my snake knows the top of the box is always open, so he shot straight up out the box once the rat was attacking him. nearly 4 weeks have gone by since then, and he will not even eat a small mouse. not only, but tonight he shed, and from the looks of the scars now on his back, some spots are red and missing scales. i was told that these would heal after he shed. but that seems to be false. is there anything i can do to aid him so he heals? or are these scars now permanant ?
