I think my King got parasites?

[AlexPan]

Hey every one. Today while feeding my California King Snake female, i looked at its scales, and some of them got some kind of transferant lines as if a worm ate thrue the scales . I'm going to a vet with it on tuesday, but until then is there anything i can do to help her? Thanks.

I don't quite know what you mean by transferant lines.

Do you mean like a fold line in the middle of a scale?

When i toch the scales they feel normal, but it looks like the some scales inside do not have anithing inside of them.

I think he meant to spell out transparent lines, by meaning they are "see-through" lines. As if their is empty space within the scales themselves. Personally, I have never heard nor seen anything like that before. Maybe it just looks this way to you for some odd reason? Who knows,but if you are worried have a vet take a look see. Or that scientist person you spoke of that was going to help you with reintroducing the Kings in the first place......
