How about moisture? Has it been overly wet in there? Or overly dry for that matter? That could also cause problems for her. If her breathing isn't bad then I would just continue to check on her to see if the mucus goes away. I would also raise the temps up a little bit more, but not too much since they are already as high as you said. If it gets noticeably worse in the next 24 hrs I would try to set up a vet visit with a good herp vet if possible. In my experience, most situations like this, especially when associated with a shed, go away on their own as long as conditions in the cage are optimal (slightly higher temps, clean dry substrate, access to fresh clean water). But, if things look like they are going south, get some antibiotics as soon as you can.
