breathing

Today I could hear my ball python breathing kinda sound like he had a stuffy nose or something ha ha. I dont know it was kind of a wheezing sound. Could this be respitory infection or what does this mean....?

sounds like it could be the beginning of one, id take him to a vet to be sure.

It could be. It could also be a loose piece of skin that is stuck in his nostril. If he is close to shedding or has shed recently then I would keep a close eye on him in case any other symptoms show up or if the wheezing sound persists. If that's the case, then I think a vet visit would be wise.
