This past year ive said before ill say it again omg at the amount of illness and ailments ive had i dunno if its because i have dogs, turtles and snakes and it seems a lot because theres 11 of them but haway!!

This is the same snake who had the infection in hes bum vent which seemed to clear up 2 months ago and the vet said he was fine he ate once after the vet and then stopped for the whole 2 months hes bum was starting to clog again so i restarted the betadine soaks and it became clear again.
He came out of shed yesterday and a couple of hours later when i got him out to check (i always wait a few hours incase of sensitivity) i noticed he had a small patch of darkened scales. I thought it was a patch of retained shed so i tried to wipe off with the wet towel and a few scales came off and it was raw and bloody i disinfected hes house and took everything out made it all clean checked today and its looking like this all yellow and greenish. No idea what it is or if its still something to do with hes infected vent or anything i tried to feed him today and he walloped 2 jumbos off when he was feeding i was looking at him and noticed he has another dark patch of scales further down hes body which im sure wasnt there yesterday. Ive been reading up if it is scale rot and there still eating betadine baths are good and also rubbing atheletes foot cream on the infected areas twice a day if its a mild form because its an antifungal cream is this lies? lol any advice as usual greatly appreciated also hes husbandry is paper towels and humidity is at a normal level so i dont know howthis has happened.
