Thanks for the reply, the first picture I posted the snake was coiled up and that discoloration was really prominent. I did notice the dehydration at the store, (wrinkly neck) but didn't know what it was. The feeding chart indicated that she ate a mouse 2 weeks ago, so I attempted to feed her as soon as I got her home before I put her in the enclosure. I expected that she may be too stressed to eat at that point, but I wanted to offer it to her because it had been so long since she ate. I'm going to let her get used to the new enclosure for a few days and then try feeding again. I think I'll go back up and take a second look at their enclosure too and see if there is anything that could have caused a stain. I'm sure they've cleaned hers out already, but I'll check out the others. All the snake enclosures were similar.
