    Wrinkled nose

    When I went to check on Steve today, he had what appeared to be dried mucus on his nose.

    He doesn't have any of the other symptoms, however. His breathing is quiet, I haven't seen actual mucus, he hasn't been gaping, no strange noises, and he's as alert and active as ever.

    So, what do you think? Have I just caught something very early or is there something else wrong?
    I'm somewhat new to the world of owning snakes, but I've read all the books and I've pestered all the veterans with questions!
    I'm a veterinary med student and a Crazy Cat Lady in training.

    -10 rescued stray cats (Midnight, Chewie, Blackie, Kiwi, Isis, Gronkle, Nymph, Smudge, Hobbes, Stix)
    -Ball Python, 'Steve Rogers'(also known as 'Cap', 'Stevie', 'Stevorino' and occasionally 'my little twerp'.)
    -Chinchillas! Male(Mr. Pokeylope) and Female(Linda), and two babies(Lilli and Razputin)

    I'm assuming this is a snake?

    No, I think she's talking about a pony.

    You might have caught something early or maybe it could be stuck shed. Without photos, we'd just be randomly guessing.
