So I just got finished feeding my 7 month old BP and saw something a little concerning. As she was finishing her small rat, there was a small white piece of something hanging out the side of her mouth. It looks almost like a small piece of wax paper and sounded hard as she moved against the paper towels along the side of her tub. A friend of mine thinks that it may be a piece of shed/skin but it her shed was 6/13 and the time before that was in march. I don't think she is going to go into she'd for another few months. I am concerned that she might have hurt herself with her rodent. The weight and width were in the appropriate range for her weight and size. She did seem to have some trouble getting over the hind haunches but she managed. I will try to get pictures in a couple days if it is still there. I want to give her some time to digest before I accost her for an examination. Any ideas of what this might be? I know this is a little hard to determine without pictures, but I will get some as soon as possible. Has anyone had anything like this happen to their snake? I'm freaking out a little bit.
