I checked on one of my snakes that had just completed her Shed. As I looked at the shed I noticed dried blood at the cloacal vent area of the shed skin. I then checked the snake and noticed that she has blood showing around her cloaca..not flowing or anything , but simply present around the edges of the vent as if there is blood there just inside the vent. This one has me dumbfounded , so I was wondering if anyone else has experienced the same issue.

I put same salve on it just in case she hurt a scale or something in the shed that caused it and will keep a check for her next bowel movement to see what it looks like. I will get her to a vet if it doesnt clear up very soon. But would like some feedback if anyone has it.

Any ideas?
