Looks like he's just roughed up the skin on his nose so that he can shed. No worries. :)

Not true if you notice his eyes they look cloudy still.It looks like he is rubbing his nose on something say like a screen lid.If the enclosure does not have a screen lid or such check it and find what he is rubbing his nose on.It could turn into a open wound or such.

Not entierly True man. I've noticed that happen to some of my AfRocks and Ball Pythons here and there. They're all in AP cages, or racks, so not much to rub on.

Ok i just never seen any of them get that way without rubbing on something ruff or such.I guess if they rub it hard enough it happens without something causing it :P .

Sometimes my female will start rubbing her nose while she's in blue, usually the day before she clears up, then she sheds that night/next day. It doesn't happen all of the time though. Maybe he's just impatient and wants to get that skin off now :8:

I'm curious as to what exactly causes it, but it isn't rubbing from what I know.

What is your humidity? When mine go into shed, I bump it up to a firm 80% minimum and keep it there.. have not had a broken nor stuck shed on mine in months.
