I have only had my ball python for about 10 days. When I picked him up, he seemed healthy. He wasn't under weight had no signs of mites and his mouth and nose were clear of any liquid. I fed him last saturday for the first time and he redily took a frozen then thawed mouse. He is about 17 inches long. After he ate I didn't see much of him for a few days. He mostly stayed in his one of his small hides. When he came back out, his eyes were fogged over. From what I understand, this is a common sign that he will be shedding fairly soon. He also seemed more uncomfortable with being handled. Today I noticed that every couple minutes when he breathes it makes a slight "clicking sound". This makes me think that he might have a RI. One other thing that I just noticed is that when he curls up the skin right next to his head folds a little and some of the scales don't lay flat. Does this mean that he is dehydrated because the humidity is too low and might this be a cause of the clicking while breathing? I need to know asap so I can get him to a vet if he needs it. Thanks.
