Could it be due to breeding season by any chance?

I agree with you Shaky, it could easily be an injury trying to heal quickly. I was just wondering if anyone thought it might be due to the time of the year and the snakes size/age? That is really quick for shedding, even in breeding season, but i just wanted to know if anyone else has had that happen? I have not personally, just curious.
Thanks in advance for your comments, and have a good day.

:I'm sure someone will contradict me, but quick sheds like that often mean some sort of scale damage.
