    Coughing?

    My girl Phoenix,was laying in her cage,then out of nowhere she started coughing or something,it sounded like a cat trying to cough up a hairball or something... She tensed her neck up,then after about 2 "coughs",she relaxed,I waited about 5-10 minutes,then checked her over. She looks fine,like it didn't happen.. She hasn't eaten yet,so I don't think it was regurgitation but Idk, Any ideas?

    Reptiles sneeze sometimes, sometimes cough, sometimes hiss a little, a noise here and there is no worries.

    If she pooped after that it could have been that. They can make some really loud noises! There have been a couple times I've been in my snake room and it sounds like someone is taking the biggest dump you ever heard and I search all the tubs and no one has pooped yet! They are loud little creatures!
