    What's wrong with her?



    She doesn't have any bubbles or mucous around her mouth. I also doesn't hear any sound of her breathing but why does she sleep with her head up? Is this also a sign of an RI?

    Many of my snakes lay in a position that makes their nose point up. I wouldn't worry without any other signs of an issue.

    Do you not have hides?

    When mine had RI and lay in the head up position, the head plus several inches of neck was pointing straight up, usually in a corner for support. That snake's position doesn't scream "RI" to me.
