I got to watch my first shed, finally caught her in the act :p

But I noticed this strange spot on her shed. Any clue as to what it is? I checked her head and I don't see anything strange as of yet.

If it's an injury, is there anything I can do or anything I should do? I know I bought some sort of anti-bacterial viv cleaner but if there is anything to directly apply to the snake, I'm looking for it now. I don't want whatever it is to get worse, or infected. I know she was rubbing up against a certain part of the driftwood that could be the problem, if so I'm sanding that corner off right now, heh.
 
Not sure what that could be...Is there any sign of injury on the snakes head? If there isnt, It may be nothing. Wish I could be of more help.
 
I just checked her head again, there's a coloration I havent recognized before. Instead of orange there's now a pinkish color like the color inbetween her saddles. If it was an injury do you think it has healed by now since the color is different?
 
I suspect she might have hurt her head somewhere (since there's apparently something like "bare skin" on her head now). Maybe the thing on the shed is a little scar thingy? Or more accurately the thing that forms on a wound, dried blood and all that. But I suppose it might all heal away in a couple of sheds. Probably good enough to just keep an eye on the odd spot. :)
 
I agree with Liselle...I would just keep an eye on it and it should be fine in a shed or two. keep us posted.
 
Sometimes they get that it's like a rub burn. They rub their head or chin or nose on a rough area like the screen lid. You could put a little neosporin on it.
