    Ri?

    Hey everyone. I noticed the past couple of days, my snake has been sneezing now and then. First I thought I misheard it, then I thought it might go over within a day or two, but it's been multiple days now and I'm concerned. Apart from that, she's gone off feed since a week and a half now. That's not so long, but she usually eats without a problem every 6/7 days (she's on the light side, feeding her a bit more often was a recommendation of the vet). That in combination with with the sneezing, has got me worried. I also noticed she seems a bit more active than usually. Outside the terrarium she seems like a happy snake, but when she's so active in the terrarium she sometimes comes over as restless. I checked her mouth, it looks perfectly healthy to me. I'm making sure her temps and humidity are alright (25 and 32 degrees Celcius, around 60% humidity). Is this suspicious enough to take her to the vet, in case this is the beginning of an RI? Could this be something else or is it nothing to worry about?

    RI's are easiest to treat if they are caught sooner rather than later. If her symptoms are concerning then I'd take her to the vet.
