Put a pic up of the portion of skin you are talking about. The wedging between glass and rocks is normal. They will find any spot in their given cage to squeeze and feel secure. To me, it sounds like it might be some sort of bacterial infection. I have seen it in a couple diff. lampro species, where it is sections, or spots of rough, almost crusted up skin. Does the muscle tone seem fuc*ed up at all...?, as if it can not slither normal. Half the body twisting to either side...?. When I have seen it in animals, the rough skin was through out the whole snake, and the eyes looked like they were sctratched up with sand paper and wrinkled look. Also, with in 2 days of shedding it would go back into the blue again. Put up some pics if you can and I bet people with more experience than I can offer will help. Good luck,

Jeff
