    Re: a few problems

    sounds like an RI but maybe not or it could be something else. when u say shes falling in her tank, what kind of setup do u have? BP's arent really meant to climb and shouldnt really be given the opportunity because they will climb and they usually end up falling because they arent very good at climbing.
    A room full of empty racks and thermostats that have been unplugged.

    Talking Re: a few problems

    she should be fine with the falling down.... unless she seams weak than it could be a problem.

    as for the "sneezing" its probably the "whistle" that almost every bp gets at some point from some stuck shed on the snakes nostril.

    BUT!.....
    it can also be a upper respiratory infection witch is really bad and if not treated it can result in death so its always good to just bring her to a vet just to make sure =]

    Goodluck!

    The only thing for her to climb on is the thermometers

    Well it is more of a whistle and she seems to have a harder time sheading her head even though I keep up on the humidity

    Goodluck!
