That would cause me to believe that that goo is not fecal matter. I would guess the snake was kept in less than optimal condition causing a respiratory infection. Make sure your snake has a thermo gradiant from 80-100 f. and feed it. It will choose the warmer side of the cage if it has eaten. Also keep the snake in a low traffic area (or cover it but with proper ventilation) for a while to let it recover. Provide a hide box (old cereal box) on each side of the cage. Stress has a major impact on the health and recovery of your snake. Keep it simple the less you do to your snake the better.
