yea.... so I really hope this is not scale rot.... but noticed these white spots after last shed. if it is scale rot, is scale rot serious? And these are small, so how does one deal with early scale rot if that is indeed what this is. Need a more experienced person to let me know.

Thanks alot.
She did flip over her water a couple days back, could be what this is from maybe, i noticed it today, but i haven't handled her much, it was two weeks of shed and then 5 days from feeding, ( I wait till she poops to handle)

That's not scale rot. Sometimes cornsnakes lose a tiny bit of color on their scales. Sometimes it's associated with crawling under plastic water bowls. I don't know why. Scale rot starts on the belly.
 
Is she near shed?
I've noticed my ball python with a white patch like this on his head, and I believe it's from the dry weather we've been having very recently.
He went into blue and the spot got more noticeable, so I expect that when he sheds it may go away. :)
