Thank you all, but I'm afraid I've already tried that! Before Pozie got this mystery disease, I took her to the vet for a self-inflicted wound on her nose (turns out she needed bigger food items; she was just rubbing her nose on things 'cause she wanted to find more dinner), and upon his advice I added a full-spectrum daylight (which made no noticable difference; I know the jury is still out on whether or not that's nessacary for corn snakes)and gradually switched her from pine shavings to Carefresh bedding. It was only after I had her entirely in Carefresh that this disease appeared! I kept her in Carefresh through most of last year, and only in the last few months have I switched her back to pine shavings. I was afraid she was allergic to Carefresh or something, but the symptoms haven't gone away. =P Any other ideas?
