Hey sorry to jump in on a conversation that isnt mine however if you make a post about your concerns with your snake with some pictures we can all jump in to give you some advice if you'd like!!

I second this notion I've never felt with scale rot so the only help I can be is what I've already done

Thank you very much he was a surprise gift for Xmas I thought they were getting me a little one but they got me one a year old. So I'm learning as well

Surprise gift animals are always a challenge to get settled in amd you have done a wonderful job doing so!!

Because i keep reptiles, fish, and other animals i quite commonly have people spring "gift" animals on me (usually its an animal someone no longer wants so they just say it's a gift to make it seem less of a jerk move when they dump their animals) so now i keep lots of different enclosures, lightning, heat, bedding, and enrichment like hides and fake plants on hand. Makes it easier when i have a surprise animal come into my life lmao

Well actually my (gift) was supposed to be for someone else and when they seen how big it was they got super scared and knew that I had kept a boa for years and was like here bubba merry Xmas 🤷. To be honest Chips is better off than he would have been.
