You need to get a care sheet for this type of snake and follow what it says re: humidity in its enclosure, substrate, temperatures etc.
How long have you had this boa and has he eaten since you had him? Is he skinny looking? Checked for mites? |

Most snakes get wrinkles just before their eyes turn blue for a shed....

Are you talking about many wrinkles or just a crease every now and then? I would lean more towards it being a crease and there should be nothing to worry about, But I do know that the RB do need much higher humidity than RTB do. So just be sure to get the humidity up in the cage.

I thought Rosy's were a desert species that needed LOW humidity...were you maybe thinking of BRB's?
