So here's the scenario...
A week ago I cleaned my BP's cage....The next day i noticed his eyes were blue and going into shed. The following day his eyes were back to normal and i offered him a rat pup. He took it with zero hesitation.
Now, 4 days after feeding and a week after 'going blue', he has yet to shed or pass anything through, for that matter. When handling him today, I heard him make a wheezing sound when breathing. Would this be related to him going into shed? Or , hopefully not, a Respritory Infection? Ive heard befor that sometimes they will wheez after shedding due to left over dead skin, but what about before?
And just to add temps are fine and humidity is about 60+, keping it high until he sheds.
Thanks!
also, I know they say not to feed during shed, so is it better to wait? Also given that he is looking like he needs to pass some solids?
