Blister disease is one of the health issues of pet snakes that can be prevented by observing proper hygiene and sanitation. Affected snakes develop blisters that are filled with fluid. These are usually found on the underside of snakes that live in poor housing conditions such as dirty unhygienic environment, substrate that is excessively moist and/or moldy. At first, blisters may only be very few but the blisters can increase in number pretty quickly which can become life-threatening particularly when it accumulates near the snake’s mouth, nose, or cloaca. The best way to protect your pet snake against the problem is to undertake measures to prevent it in the first place. Keep the snake’s enclosure clean by removing feces and urates regularly. The bedding must be kept dry and changed frequently. If you notice blisters forming on your pet snake’s body, consult your vets Ellicott City, MD ASAP.
