    RI, with nothing wrong with tank?

    everything(temp, humidity, ect) has been perfect in both the tank and tub my bp has been in... how is it possible that it has RI? just sheer dumb luck? got it before i got the snake?

    Ive only had this snake for about a month now... hes was born in 08 and is around 13-14" long

    Hi,

    I know this might sound counter intuitive but it might help to focus on what you are doing right - you caught it and are getting it treated.

    It can be something as simple as stress from a new environment making them a little more succeptible to a complete mystery. Sometimes no matter what we do people and animals can get the odd sniffle or bug.

    As long as it isn't a regular thing and you do the standard double check just to make sure all the readings are where they should be don't panic as much.

    well RI is in fact an infection, unless you live in a 100% germ free world it can always happen.
