 Shedding Question

Hi today my Dumeril Boa finally shed for the first time! My question is though, before he shed his mouth had some mucus around it, his tongue was barley coming out of his mouth, and I also heard some crackling noises. Now I know when I saw this I immediatley thought that he had a respiratory infection. But now everything that I heard and saw is gone. Is the reason why he was doing that was because he was just about to shed. Because now he is doing great again and I see no mucus, his tongue is coming fully out of his mouth and he is smelling everything, and there are no more crackling noises with his saliva. What do you think?
