Help my red tail boa got too hot and is not moving
My snake is limp but not stiff is there anything I can do? She got too hot which I think is the cause of her condition.

What happened? How did she get too hot? HOW HOT did she get????
Is she still breathing? Cool her off in cool water maybe (but not too deep, keep her head up too)
And is there a 24 hour emergency vet clinic anywhere near you? If she is still alive, I suggest you take her in asap.

Is she coming around at all?

Do not put her in cool water, she needs to cool off slowly or you will shock her system. I would leave her on the cool side of her enclosure and monitor her.
How hot did she get?

Re: Help my red tail boa got too hot and is not moving
I was gone all day and the airconditioner failed in the house. All my enclosures were 98 to 99. I think all the rest of them survived. I got the air working now. Lucy our RTB is not moving at all. I don't think she is breathing. I think we lost her. I am so pissed but fearful the rest r OK. My girlfriend is crying holding her in a tub.

I am thankful we didn't loose everyone. All the enclosures are cooled down to 80 ambient now. The 5 others are OK.

Re: Help my red tail boa got too hot and is not moving
That’s crazy! Your house got to 98 degrees from the AC being out for like 12 hours?! Ugh, are you sure she’s not just in shock? I hate that you came home to this
