My snake, who happens to be a ball pyhton, (but I don't know who else to ask or trust besides this board :shrugs: ) is wheezing when she breaths. I am affraid that she might have a RI.
She hasn't eaten in about 2 months and her temps have stayed fairly stable. The temp in my room as dropped as I live in MN where is is already in the negative digits, but I added another small heat pad and she has a heat lamp during the day.
I had her out today and she headed for her favorite spot, my neck, and I could her her wheeze when she breathed. i then put her back in her cage and coverd the screen part with blaknet to keep in more heat and I could still hear her wheezing. I don't notice anything different with her. She has lost some weight, but I don't have a scale so I can't be sure. She spends most of her time day or night, on her warm side hide.
any advice is appreciated. she is my favorite baby girl and I want her to be ok. We don't really have a herp vet that I would trust in my small town here.
