Liquidy head? *health issues*

So my snake pancake is about to shed, she's in blue.
Well I noticed her head skin is wrinkly and loose when I press down on it it seems as though it's fluid filled???? I've never experienced this before.
I'm concerned?
Also I got a shot of the inside of her mouth, there isn't discharge I'm just wondering if the coloration is normal? Thank you!

I guess I'm saying the top of her head and nose is overly squishy and honestly I've never really ventured so close to her head so I'm just concerned because it did look "loose"?
But she's acting normally?
Who knows I'll just keep an eye on her.

I would just keep a eye on it but not be to concerned if shes acting normal. Ive had some babies eye caps seem to absord water from me spraying before shed. They are healthy tho. Good luck.

I don't see the shot of the inside of her mouth, but I'm inclined to go with Chris - they can all look a bit funny pre-shed. Remember they secrete liquid between the old shed and the new skin, that's what makes their eyes go cloudy.

I'd keep an eye on her and I bet it will pass once she sheds. If not, get back on here with more photos!

Good luck - everyone worries with their early snakes, and I don't think anyone on here minds questions - it shows you are paying attention!

Looks fine to me (But I'm not a BP expert - hope someone else will chime in).
