has any one seen this before on a jungle carpet before he is going to shed? i noticed this today and tried to take a photo of his back. "safari" is @4 years old. male. @7-8 foot. very mellow with handling. takes f/t rats so its not a bit from live food. i don't feed live to any of my snakes. i just want to know if i should be doing something or just let him to his thing when he sheds. the thing is we are heading out of town this weekend an he is due to shed any day. GRR!! so unless he sheds by morning he'll be on his own till monday. any ideas of what or how this happened?

the area in questions is pretty much in the middle of the photo. you can see some scales raised with shed getting ready to come off? i dont' know. also i was misting him a bit so he looks a little wet.
