    AAAH! Question! Noticed redness around my bp's mouth :(

    So my snake's been acting a little funny lately, and she usually does when its about time for her to shed, but I just tried to feed her, and instead of just eating her food like she usually does, she just pulled the mouse into her hide and stuck her head back out. Confused, I looked at her to see if I could see anything odd, and it seems like her mouth was a little red.
    Now, two things I think it COULD be is 1. its just a little blood from her food (hopefully) or 2. she may have a splinter or something from her bark bedding (I have noticed her burrowing and making little tunnels underneath her hides lately)
    Maybe I'm being overcautious, but is there anything you guys think it could possibly be??
    Other than the little bit of redness, nothing else seems physically wrong.

    Please and thank you!

    can you inspect her mouth closer, get her t open up for you? It's probably nothing, but do a mouth inspection to be sure.
