I think my ball is getting sick

Thanks guys I will try to get the temps up. He isnt making any wheezing or popping sounds at all and so far today I have seen no bubbles.

Keep stress down to a minimum. Stress lowers the immune system.

A culture and antibiotics are a must. But doing a at home F10 nebulizer treatment can work in a pinch since you're low on funds.

X2 on F10 nebulizitation. I have personally used this with a Boa and it cleared her right up but we caught it early and got her seen by Dr. Craig our local herp vet as well.

Everyone here has given you great advice. My only addition would be that you're looking for your temps to be 90ish on the hot side and 80ish on the cool side once this is all cleared up. The bumped up temps temporarily can help fight off the illness.

Get it away from any other snakes or reptiles you might own in the meantime. I personally would change to paper towel substrate and disinfect the cage and all of the accessories. Again, get it to a vet that has treated (not just 'treats' but 'has treated') reptiles.
