when you hear that whistle....

Heya,

I am sure I am not the first one to have had this feeling.

My Orange Ghost was entering her shed cycle so i bumbed her hummidity up and let it be in the high 60% sometime it was a bit higher and in the low 70% area,
yesterday evening (she shed over the night ) when i had her out i started to hear the whistling sound when breathing..... ofc i was like "OH GOD NO, PLEASE DONT LET IT BE RI" and I am sure more people have had that feeling, and i was afraid of it being RI as i bumbed the hummidity.

Well like I said in the lines above she shed during the night, so when i went to check on her this morning i found a nice complete shed but more important i didnt hear that whistle anymore!!!

wich left me like "duh ofc, that was the whistle, her shed was already somewhat comming off round her mouth/nouse and the air flowing over it when she was breeding made that sound"

I felt so stupid again, realy those 4 years i had to leave this hobby realy makes me stress about something i have experienced before already again and is making me feel like a newbie in this hobby again haha.

But anyways, I thought lets share this experience as i am sure more people have had this or gonna encounter this to give them something to think about before they start stressing out it might be RI

My Orange Ghost now after shed+poop weighs 706 grams her last shed was 9-20-14 back then she was 522 grams so she gained 184 grams in a monoth and a week.

thanks for reading and i hope other people can use this and somewhat keep them selfs from stressing out when it might not be needed

Yeah, I think we all have panicked over that at least once! They do tend to whistle before a shed, and sometimes afterwards if they get a bit stuck in the nose. I also have a few snakes (for some reason all the Australian-native pythons) who whistle/puff when they're excited or curious, which scared me at first... but considering they've been doing that for like 4-6 years now, I'm guessing they aren't sick.
