![]() is there another possibility in another city? A longer trip may be worthwhile to get better treatment for her. It's nearly impossible to diagnose things like this over the internet. ![]() With your description of how she is lethargic and barely moves, I would definitely treat this as a serious illness or respiratory infection with the vet visit and antibiotics it may require. If it is a respiratory infection, there are "home remedies", but I doubt their effectiveness and they only seem to work well in mild cases from what anecdotal data I've seen. Popping sounds (indicating mucous inside where it isn't visible) when breathing in/out.Mouth breathing - she looks like she is doing this in the picture.Low humidity in a very tropical species like a BRB can definitely result in a RI, which sounds like happened before you saw her appearing sick. The picture suggests she has at least one of them. ![]() I would definitely be at the vet ASAP for any of my snakes.īut, to add, there are more symptoms to check for a possible respiratory infection. Honestly, the picture you included and what you describe sounds like something pretty serious to me. Is that enough to get her this sick? Not sure what to do at the moment, she has been healthy as can be for 3 years. She hasn't eaten or drank anything different from my other snakes. The only only thing that is remotely hitting me as a cause, is having her cage dry out. It seems to be so random, I don't think she can even crawl back under her hide at the moment.ĮDIT: She can very very slowly move her body, but her head is at a gnarly angle the entire time. She keeps moving her head slowly in erratic movements, sometimes opening her mouth. She was a very live and energetic snake with lots of life and now she is barely moving. Tossed those, and now today she is even weaker. I immediately got her cage nice and moist again, and got it perfect. She is my strongest eater and will literally attempt to eat anything in front of her. I went to get out my 3 year old girl and she seemed less energetic than usual. ![]() Its been a few extra days since I got to clean, but nothing extremely bad. Hello all ): I went to clean/feed my snakes last night when I realized my BRB's tank was a lot dryer than usual. ![]()
