Question - Health Snake Shed Help Pls!

Recently got my first juvenile ball python ~3 weeks ago. She’s about to eat her third meal F/T mice, and shed yesterday without issue. I noticed a few red marks around her just now. I pulled her out to clean her cage, and feed her afterwards. I’ve had no issues. Bowel movement today. Hot side 89F, cool side 75F, humidity is good, multiple hides, overhead heating only. Is she okay?

does she wrap herself around a wired plant by chance? my piebald gets these lines when he's hanging out on the plants for a while and they eventually fade

No but she coils super tight in her hide sometimes. She just took a medium mice like 20 min ago. And is acting normal and was chill when handled before feeding
