Am I handing him too much? Still wheezing :(

Depends on the vet. Find a good vet and that wont happen. I take my reptiles into my vet and if she thinks they look fine, she just sends me home. I thought Harley my beardie had another RI as she is prone to getting sick but when i took her in, my vet told me she might have a very mild RI if anything at all and to just take her home, raise her temps and watch her. If it got worse, she would do a culture and put her on the correct meds. Not all vets are bloodsuckers. Thats why you find a good one as they are as valuable as gold.

I mean you could bump the temps up a few degrees and raise the humidity for a week or so and see if the wheezing goes away but honestly unless your snake has a piece of shed stuck in its nostril or is going into shed, it shouldnt be wheezing if its just in its cage. My retic will huff sometimes when he is out and overly active which is normal for retics but once he is in his cage and relaxed, he is quiet as a church mouse.

Ok. I'll definitely watch him this week. Take him in on Sat/Sun if nothing changes. The vet I'm thinking of was recommended on a sticky :gj: Do they act differently if they have an RI? Because he's just like himself. Even when he was out when he wheezed he didn't stop/slow down.

They wont really act different unless it is an advanced case in which you will see bubbles coming out of the mouth and nostrils and they will keep their heads up and open mouth sometimes like they are drowning.

Like i said, you can raise the temps a few degrees and bump the humidity up to around 70% for a week and see if the wheezing goes away. If it doesnt, then i would make an appointment.

I bumped up both of their temps and humidity, just in case :gj:

Please don't put the UTHs back on until you get those thermostats.

I know :sigh2: Those thermostats will be great though

Ok. Both thermostats are in, the one thing I can't figure out though, is how you put the probe? Inside? Outside? Thank youu!




(Happy Halloween! :D)

I'm assuming you put it on the inside... I also saw a video which had it inside :)
