I have no idea what to do retained eye cap??

[Michaela1927]

My ball python got burned a little bit from her heater and I am keeping her enclosure as clean and dry as possible! I got some antibiotic ointment should I put that on the bad spot? I'm not sure how to put a picture on here yet? I tried attaching it and it won't work! The main reason I started this thread is because she shed a week ago and still has some on her eyes and I tried to get it off with tap but I think I made it worse! What do i need to do? I'm scared to soak her because of her burn because I don't want it to turn into scale rot

you need to post pictures so we can give you an educated opinion

re eye caps
you need to buy a water based lubricant,KY Jelly or Viscotears...

here's a link https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rc...412846,d.ZGUto a site of a friend of mines,that shows you the method


re burn
you need to keep it dry and clean

Another proven method is to give the snake a 30 minute soak in some water ( closed container ) and then simply keep "feeding" the snake through your hands repeatedly whilst holding a damp towel .... works every single time .
