I was handling my snake earlier and it was quite close to my light, so I could see her in more detail, and I noticed that there's a tiny flake of skin near her nose. I made a few attempts to gentle brush it off, but she doesn't really like being touched around the head, so I left it, so not to stress her. I'm thinking it's probably just something something completely inconsequential, but I'd rather be safe than sorry and ask all you big brains here what yous think =) |

Could be part of an old shed? Maybe give her a bath? Might just flake it off :P I doubt it would be anything serious..
Mine had a tiny bit left after he shed.. But he lets me touch his head as much as I want, so I just brushed it off. Strange thing is, it's only me he lets near his head.. Anyone else tries and he jolts his head back.. |

Hm..I might just try brushing it off, since she turns her head away rather than lashed out at me or anything. If she still doesn't, I'll try bathing her. I don't know if its part of an old shed, since her last shed was about a month ago.. |

Nevermind, I feel silly. I brushed it off and it turns out it was just a tiny wee flake of aspen that got stuck to her >.> Hehe...as I said, better I make an idiot of myself than ignore something that might have been the early signs of something nasty ^^; |
