marks on his head

When I got my boas, they both had marks on their head. One has cleared up and one still has them. Any ideas on what they are, and if I should be worried about them? There is a picture in my gallery. It's too big to post here.

If its in your gallery then it is most certainly NOT too big to post here. Just press the "IMG" button and enter the URL and then it will post your picture.

Do you have the history on this snake? Hard to tell in the pic because its blurry, but from where I sit they look like scars of some sort. As long as they are healing that's what is important.

I edited your post to include the pics in your gallery. As Jeff stated, you can simply press on the IMG button and insert the image url (right click on the properties box to bring it up and then copy and paste), or you can do it slightly different. Click edit on your post to see my formatting.

Yep, they look like scars. Perhaps from rubbing their heads on cage sides?

You don't need to worry, if it's already healed and not infected. You might want to apply some polysporin, it might help heal faster.
