Honestly? Not really 😭 there’s many factors it could be.. pot size for one looks too big and maybe the soil is too heavy. Snakes like to be tight in their pots with well draining soil. Do you water a lot?

Ok thank you. I was thinking the same thing. And I water maybe twice a month

This was the pot it was in. And it was doing good

They should be 100% dry before watering
