Please help

so i woke up this morning and my BP tank was at 61 Deg and her mouth was full of dirt. her nose looked squished, she was cold to the touch and she wouldn't move. i thought she was dead because she also didn't breathe but she got in this odd ball from but only neck up. i kept her in her tank because i didn't exactly want to burry her yet and a couple moments later; she started breathing. she is now back alive i guess with a mouth full of coconut husk. what happened and what do i do???

also her mouth won't close

How long was the tank that cold ? When is the last time you checked on her before finding her that way ?

Take her out and open her mouth. You will have to hold her FIRMLY but GENTLY. Try to put her into a pillowcase with only her head out and her body all curled up so she can't fight or hurt herself slinging around. Once you have the mouth open, try to use a popsicle stick or something to gently put in between the jaws to keep it open and have qtips and moist paper towels ready to remove anything that may be stuck in there.

Honestly, your best bet would go to the Vet NOW. But if you cannot for whatever reason, you need to clear her mouth.

It could also be the beginning of a Respiratory infection. Esp. with the tank so cold. So if her mouth is clear of obstructions, check for mucous, bubbles, discoloration.

If she has the beginning of a RI, she might have mucous in there, and mixed with the substrate it may have formed a sticky, wet glob she can't get out.

Can you explain your setup ? Your temps ? How old is the snake, how long have you had her ? When did she eat last ? Can you post pictures of the set up and of her ??

my power is out so i have a generator running, its at 78 right now. she is prob 6 months old and ive had her for 3. she last ate 2 days ago and i dont think i can post a pic but i will try

Starting a second thread will only get them merged.

You can also put her in a pillow case and keep it under your shirt for a while.
