Doc is right, it IS usually husbandry related. and most often temp related. the keeper has yet to mention temps at all, and can only say that the heat pad was barely hot.

"barely hot" means nothing, communicates zero temp info, and all things considered, that is probably where 95% of the problem lies.

learn the proper temps required for a healthy setup, how to measure those temps, how to achieve those temps, and you won't have booger problems.

address temps immediately, and the problem may go away on its own. dilly dally and you may very well end up with a dead snake. tomorrow, next week, in two months, ignore the cause and the end will come.

best of luck.
