My ball python has started whistling, help
My BP has started whistling on occasion over the last two or three days and it has me worried. She has done it a couple times but enough to be noticeable to me. Any advice? I’m worried for her especially as she went milky eyed today for preshed

bottom line, don't panic. Watch to make sure there's no bubbling & excess mucus in her mouth, open-mouth breathing, or any signs that she is really having trouble
when breathing, & in ALL likelihood, "this too shall pass"....after she sheds, that is. ;)
And if she persists in whistling, by all means teach her a good tune...:D (joking!)
Yeah I haven’t seen any excess mucus nor have I see any other signs of issues. I thought it would be due to her she’d but I’m a worrier to the bitter end haha thank you for the advice

Im very glad too but it will continue to be an issue, also it seems her eyes aren’t milky it was the light in the room making it seem like it and her scared reaction. So I’m looking forward to feeding her soon
