I have kenyan sand boas and one of my new females is about 3months old and hasnt eat in 31/2 weeks I'm really worried cause she is losing weight and getting wrinkly. Ive tried all the tricks I could find. She is also opening and closing her mouth alot almost like streching her mouth and sometimes I see like a crust around her mouth. :no::sorry: Any ideas!!!
It Sounds RI (Respiratory Infection).
What Is The Tempertures Like? Both Ends.
Whats Method Of Heading (E.g. Heatmat, Bulb)
Here's A Link That should Help.
I'd Get The Snake To A Vet ASAP Though.

Too cool. Go for a warm side of closer to 90-95F & a warm side of 80F Very likely a RI as suggested. Mark
