    Just getting second Opinions..ball python acting weird
    So my ball python seems to be acting very weird after eating two hoppers for the first time, she seems to be breathing quite heavy and sitting abnormally still for her eating. She seemed to be perfectly fine before that, although she seems to be "trying to escape" more often the last two days, maybe because she knew feeding was soon. The only thing that has changed is she doesn't have a heat lamp atm, only a UTH, which dropped the ambitent temp from 84-85 to 78-81. I'm really hoping I didn't cause a RI.

    My good friend martin82531 gave me his view, but always good to get a second opinion :P

    I'm having a really hope time just leaving her alone because I'm really worried =/

    I would try to raise the temps for sure. I wouldn't think that the drop in temps caused a RI. While they're not ideal, the temps wouldn't cause a RI.

    Far as I know RI's are typically associated with excess humidity levels. I would try and get those temps back up but wouldn't worry otherwise.
