I have recently acquired a Baby rock Python, whom was not treated so well at a breeder. the person I got the rock from had taken her (not sure) to a reptile vet and had parasites, ticks, and mites, and was extremely underfed; the parasites, ticks and mites are gone now. She was forced fed up until about a week ago, i acquired her 2 days ago; she ate a mouse last night.
I wanted some advice from someone knowledgable with Rocks. I have worked with and had training with the Burmese and the Royal Pythons, but they were always healthy. She (been calling the rock she until i get her sexed) has been doing good since i got her and is really strong. I have included a couple of images her in which one can see the way her skin is too "big" for her. If anyone has worked with a rock that is of this condition please give me advice and feel free to email at ladysynn@thedarkcrystalgoddess.com it would be greatly appreciated.

Also she did have an eyecap left from a shed, so we placed her in a warm bath that she enjoyed swimming around in for about 20 minutes, that seemed to work with the eyecap.
Thank you in advance.
