Wow...this is an old post
Never expected to get an answer to such an old post. Nevertheless, this snake died last March from an unknown systemic infection. All appropriate measures were take to get him healthy, multiple vet office visits, meds (shots in office and at home), his living conditions were always clean; but he also had an unknown lump that was going to be looked at after he was a little better...but that never happened, he passed away. I really don't know if the breeder knew anything about the mucus problem that never happened again or anything about the lump, even the systemic infection of unknown orgin...it is a very reputable breeder, I will not name names. Sometimes bad things happen for no reason, this last stage of events happened right when I was going to start breeding it to the only female I have of breeding size. So, in not wanting to get her sick, the breeding never happened but she still layed 13 slugs anyway...that was a bummer, I was hoping that wasn't gonna happen but does sometimes.
