    RI and water bowl

    my blood just had nasal discharge from her nose but there are no bubbles whatsoever but in the mean time what can i do about it?
    the cause of the ri is also my fault because i soak her whilst basking under the sun because whenever i give her a water bowl she will just flip it out
    and her scales became very delicate and easy to lift what is the cause of this? pls help any answer will be appreciated
    she currently two years old

    Hi Jodi,
    Sorry to hear about the respiratory infection. I have been lucky to not have that problem yet. I have never personally treated a snake's respiratory infection, but it doesn't seem to be very difficult.

    Here are a couple different videos:



    Best of luck. I hope she gets better soon!

    What kind of water bowl are you using? Bloods drink a good amount of water.

    I have good luck with mine using ceramic dog bowls that are wide, low, and flat on the bottom.

    Are there any other signs of RI?

    I wouldn't want to treat the snake unless you are sure it actually has an RI.

    Re: RI and water bowl

    yes actually, because she already had a nasal discharge on one of her nose but never gasp for air or had bubbles on her mouth but i already got the medicine and its working pretty great! ( i didn't have to use syringe or anything like that, just put a few drops on her nose) and she actually strated to get better. thanks for all the help everyone
