ok . . I think i got rid of the mites. But now it looks like she is going through a bad shed or something because she has skin hanging off of her face and her body looks all wrinkley. That alone wouldnt bother me but now she is constantly opening and closing her mouth. It looks like sometimes she doesnt even close it all the way. At first i thought i was just something she was trying to get out of her mouth or something but now im getting worried. Since the snake just had mites im worried of possible disease tranpher . . .

what do you guys make of it? Also, is there anything i can do to help her shed? I sprayed some reptile shedding aid by zoo med but i dont want to use it too much because i know these are dry snakes, they prolly dont like the moisture as much as my Brasillian Rainbow Boa. . .

The snake really doesnt look too hot, she honestly is opening and closing her mouth like every time she moves . . . .

Thanks
