    I think it holds true with all snakes since they don't have a diaphragm and are unable to cough.

    Raise your humidity to 65-70%. Bloods are sensitive to overly dry air, and excessive dry conditions can dry the lung, resulting in chronic respiratory issues. You need to raise your humidity & get the snake to a vet to culture out what's causing the problem, so it can be properly treated.

    yeah well i just got home from the vet she said my snake looked very healthy and ask if i wanted to do a culture but i dont have the 180 to do the culture so she just gave me a broad anti bacterial and sent me on my way she want to see me again in a week or two. i have an appointment for my ball on monday but i think i should have taken her today she looks worse i hope im just being paranoid. and i hope they will be ok they are like my babies.

    Any updates??

    I sometimes think my blood may have an ri. No symptoms. But when I hold him really close. And its dead quiet. I can hear the faintest little pop every few breaths. Maybe I'm over reacting. He doesn't always do it either. Ill keep a sharp eye on him.

    Do you recall what your vet prescribed as the antibiotic?
