by retianed shed, I think he meant it looks like the boa had a retained shed before, and this is what it looks like to me as well.
When boas have had retianed shed (usually at the tip of the tail)
that doesn't come off at first, then comes off later it
causes some tissue die off and the tails get that look.
The only thing I would worry about is if it starts swelling or getting bigger, then possibly it could be some sort of infection? But honestly it just looks like that boa had retained shed when it was younger which caused some slight tail damage. Shouldn't be anything to worry about... but I will always say as a disclaimed, best to get it checked by a vet to make sure.
