As the name suggests, unlike most snake varieties, the Scaleless Ball Python has no scales anywhere on it's body except for the ocular scales protecting its eyes. These snakes can retain the same colors and patterns as any other ball python but will have the smooth skin.
Do Scaleless ball pythons shed?
They Shed
Yes, they do. Snakes shed their skin, not their scales, so the absence of scales has no effect on a snake's shedding. Scaleless snakes shed exactly like normal snakes, leaving behind one tubed piece that was their outermost layer of skin.
Is it bad for snakes to be Scaleless?
scaleless snakes are fine, they are healthy and shed in one piece. (BTW: genetic mutations and morphs are the same thing.) whats important is that the scales at the belly need to stay, the snakes need these to move.
