Scale discolouration...?

Quick question before I head to bed... sorry in advance for the lack of pictures. I tried, I really did, but there's only so much you can do with a crappy camera when it comes to small details

Anyways, my corn shed today, and it had come off in two big pieces, with a bit of skin still attached around his midsection. Part of the skin that was still attached rubbed off easily, but there's a stubborn little piece that won't come off; it appears to be adhered to a couple scales that look to me to have turned a deep brown colour. Is this something I should be worried about? My first thought was to wait and see what it looks like when/if the retained shed comes off, but even though I've done the reading, I definetly have no 'field' experience with this type of thing...

So like I said, I was just off to bed when I noticed he shed, so I'll be looking into it more early tommorow, just thought I'd throw a question out to you guys first just to be safe.

Thanks
