    Something stuck in his nose?
    Okay here is the deal. I got a snake yesterday which can be found here and upon bringing her home I noticed that he was making what appeared to be a hissing noise so I thought of it as nothing, I assumed that he was just threatened by the new surroundings. However, upon inspecting him thoroughly today I noticed that his left nostril seemed clogged with something. I then got him to move and sure enough as he would breathe more and more the noise would get louder. So I know there is something in his nose.

    Now for the question.
    Is there any safe way that I can remove it or should I take him to a vet? I don't feel like spending an extravagant amount of money to have them pick out a piece of what seems to be substrate.

    Thank You.

    Probably either a bit of substrate or a bit of old shed. The infant nasal aspirator ("baby bulbsto suck it out" :rofl:, gawd Ed that did give me a laugh...course in my house when we had babies around we called it a "booger sucker-upper") is a great idea and should work.
