Weird Wrinkles

Hi, my black rat snake Ziggy has been with me for 3 weeks and has eaten a pinky every week, but he has these wrinkles in his skin sometimes and i am wondering whats going on. He has been in blue the past few days and the blue seems to be off of his head but im not sure about his body, and i cant find a shed. Could the wrinkles be related to that?
 
If he's out of the blue he should be due to shed anytime soon & could very well be just that. One other thing is he could be dehydrated, is his water dish near the side of the viv & have you seen him drink..? See how he looks after his shed........... :)
 
I'm thinking that your snake is going to shed any time, and their skin gets real wrinkled and loose looking. I'd expect a shed within a day or two.
 
I had a baby amel inwhich she had wrinkles...... ended up she was dehydrated..... and i lost her weeks later.. so check the temps and keep the lil thing wet!
