looking for help

[SammieF]

hey all, new to this forum

writing to get some form of help, I'm a 2 snake owner,I have a 9yr old Cali King snake and a 5 yr old Corn snake.
just today I realised that my corn snake looked like shewas gasping for air, she isn't interested in food and isn't very lively at all. worried that she might be dieing :( and to cap it all off thereisnt a reptile specialist anywhere near me. Help ?

thanks, I've cleaned her tank out,given her fresh water (which I literately had toput her into coz she dont seem to have energy to slither herself into her bowl) she livened up for about half an hour after she had a drink and then the whole gasping thing began again, I'm at my wits end

I do wish you the very best of luck....

Mouth open and gasping for air usualy is a respiratory infection.
I would take your corn to a vet asap.

What's the substrate that it's on?

Whereabouts in the UK are you - one of us may know a reptiel vet that is near you.
