    A little punctuation might make that readable.


    Cold temps will lower humidity (warm air holds more moisture) - not too sure if that was what you were asking (?)

    Wheezing and mucus is not a good sign.

    A RI does not clear up on it's own and is a serious problem, so an Herp Vet must be seen ASAP to get proper treatment, here is how to find one in your area http://www.arav.org/USMembers.htm

    While waiting for your appointment all you can do is to raise your temps.

    Keep us posted.

    Re: my ball python got a chill

    yes. your warm end should be 90-92 and your cool end should be 80-82.

    please... relax and breathe... and re read your post before you hit the reply button. when you are missing letters and words from your posts it's very hard for us to understand (and respond) what you are asking.

    Lower the humidity and up the warm side to 95 until you can get in to see a vet.
