Here is a nice close up of the black spot on one of my albino nelsoni. Any idea what it is?

Has (s)he always had it, or is it something new? If so, has the snake shed since it appeared?

I have never noticed it before. Is this the first sign of mouth rot? Maybe it is a scab from a mouse bite? Though this girl only eats rat pups. Has anyone else seen anything similiar?

When I first saw the pic, the first thing that came to my mind was mouthrot. But I've never had a snake that had it, so I couldn't really tell you. Nice looking snake though.
