This isn't a good picture, but is it normal to have folded skin on the head?

Boas go crinkly like a Chow Pei when they are coming up to shed. Its really odd. My Boa is so pale its the only way I know a shed is coming. Thats quite a bouncers neck yours has going on.

They are still a bit blind until the skin comes off now, and I find they are more irritable at that stage than when they are fully blued up. I love Boa attitude, all hisses and open mouths.

yeah well he scared the hell out of me lmao..didn't bite, didn't try to but still. At first I thought it just his paper rustling, so he upped the volume, mouth wide..so I took a breath and gathered him up.
Maybe i'll take him out before shed..I need a whisky first hehe

Its all for show, I've never had Sanke strike when hissing, she does it silently. Boas hiss like a tyre going down, Royals hiss like an air brake, Duke makes me jump when he does it.
