Hey all,
I never had a snake with a repitory infection before. So i don't know what it's like when it gets better.
I came home one night for work .. the temp was 90 degrees and the humidity was a whopping 85%! I picked up my blood and saw her mouth open a little and a bubble over her nostril ... tha tnight she was wheezing like crazy, and yawning, and bubbles were coming frm her nose.. since then .. I don't see any water in her nostrils at all, and she just clicks. I bumped the temps up to 90 and left them there. The problem is she won't stop moving around in her tank.. she has a hide away from the heat, and fresh water.. but she literally will not stop circling the enclosure and pressing her nose against the glass (no wet streaks from her nostrils) trying to get out. It is obvious she isn't as bad as that night. her mouth isn't open (not that i can see) i opened it and the mouth isn't red. and there aren't any bubbles. but she still clicks and has been in this condition for maybe 3 days (the bad symptoms only lasted a night. ) Is there anything i can do to speed up the process? I want her eating again.
