DO NOT FOG CHLORHEXIDINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It WILL chemically burn soft tissue if not diluted propperly.
If you are going to take the fogging route:
You need a dedicated med tub (I use a 28 qt)
You will need a fogger (I use a Zoo Med Reptifogger )
You will need F10 (I order from Reptile Basics )
You will need to watch This Snakebytes
If you have any questions feel free to PM me.
Your choice is totally up to you but I would recommend a vet visit.

I know you said that she didn't just drink water, but how do you know for sure she didn't in the 15 or so minutes before you handled her?
Is the"goop" still coming out, is it constant?
I have been drooled on by my snakes before. I would calm down and look for other signs of a RI before getting to excited.

When I get home from work tonight, Ill post pics of the lungs with RI,,,, and any other part you might be curious about.

I would definitely appreciate that. You could pm it to me or start a new thread, so this one doesn't need to be labeled "graphic" for those that would rather not see it. I had a feeling it was something like that, I know charts only do so much when it comes to anatomy. Thanks  (sorry, didn't mean to hijack thread for a bit)
