    My boy is Clicking?! RI?

    Im sitting on the couch with Monty and he seems to be clicking when he breaths. Ive only had him for about 6 months he just shed.
    Is he starting to get a ri? What causes ris and how do I prevent it? Im not freaking out yet but I am concerned. Hes my first Exotic snake. I don't want anything bad happening to him.

    Clicking is a sign of an RI, the best you can do is raise temperature and lower humidity. Or take him to a vet. Ri's are usually caused by having too cool and too damp of an environment with limited airflow.

    Also, check his mouth for bubbles.
