Scaleless snakes
I just started looking into them. I found this website that was pretty informative, without being too in-depth. Take a look, and let's start a discussion!
Scaleless Texas Ratsnakes - Notes and a photographic reference.
What are your thoughts? I think they're pretty cool. It is kind of weird to see the snakes without scales, but I'd totally own one!
I was looking a little more and this website contradicts the first and says the scaleless snakes lack keratin.

Here are some interesting random photos of scaleless normally scaled animals:
