new ringed python

[Jezabel]

I was quite suprised to found one in a petshop in quebec!!! Needless to say I bought her right away! She was keep way too dry so she's not in great shape but once she'll have shed, she'll be a beauty I think :D

I don't have any info on her yet but, don't know why, I was under the impression that ringed python are almost never import from new guinea, any reason why? If she's a wc, she really weel tempered but, if she's a cb, she's in bad shape.

Here's a pic of her looking way better after a night in a nice humid tank!

And here's a close up of her bigest scar :( Any idea what the cause could be? Look like a burn car it seems like the scale has melt together???
