sick cinny update
so i am ready to take my cinnamon ball in to the vet tomorrow, because of the open mouth breathing poppping and clicking, im on the computer and i hear him making a lot of noise banging around, so i check on him and hes trying to peel the skin of his head, so i soak him in warm water and he gets it all off, i pull him out a literilly no more popping clicking or open mouth ,he seems 100% he even ate a rat soon as i dropped it in. do you think hes fine and the symtomes are from the shed or should i still take him in

Re: sick cinny update
Was this a retained shed? Sounds like the mouth-opening could have just been his attepts to stretch the skin off.
How does he appear, really? Is there mucus coming out of his mouth; actually, can you post a pic of his face, now?

I'd just take him in. It's better to be safe then sorry.

Sounds like he is fine. The popping and clicking can happen with shed.
I say give him a day or so and if it keeps happening, then take him in.

You have an expensive morph, always better to err on the safe side. its not normal for snakes to be making those noises you discribed. a respitory problem can turn into pneumonia quickly. See a Herp Vet!
