I checked to see if there were any kind of critters on her anywhere. I also held her snout up to my ear for a long time to see if I could detect wheezing or difficulty breathing. Everything appears normal, other than this mucus-like liquid.

What is going on here?
No wheezing. No other signs of respiratory infection (there are signs - right guys?).

Clear liquid coming from the mouth after handling the snake.

Sounds like she lost a bit of her drink on ya. Back down from Defcon 4, she's gonna be all right.
