    Possible RI

    Hello everyone,

    My little girl has been doing some sneezing and I have seen her open her mouth a time or two but no mucus. I am leaving town tomorrow on vacation and having my roommate keep an eye on her while I am away. Is there something I can be doing to try and help her while I am gone? I will take her to the vet when I get back but not gonna have time before then. I am finding so many different opinions on what to do online I am not sure what is the best way to go. Temps are 92 in her hot spot down to 79-82 on the cool side. She just had a good shed about 2 weeks ago, humidity dropped to around 35-40% last week after I had it around 70 for the shed. I have it at around 50% right now. Some suggestions I have seen are to drop humidity and others are to raise it, some things say bump temps to 90 all the way through the tank. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

    Have your friend take her to the Vet.

    take your snake to a exotic vet that handles reptiles. if your snake does have a R.I. it's going to have to get shots, so take someone to the vets that will do this, so the vet can show them how it's done.
