Thank you all for the help, Nose rub makes sense. We will have to get her into a new enclosure with less to rub on.

If the caretaker won't give you any clues as to how it happened you may be out of luck. Is there anything rough in the enclosure that could have done this? A latch maybe?

It doesn't look bad and should go away with a couple sheds but I'd try to get some info out of the caretaker. Did they move it? Change heat settings? Feed it? Water it? Anything different at all?

We were away for about 2 weeks. The caretaker did not change anything. they did give water, but did not feed as they aren't comfortable with boas.


Thank you all again
