My snake has the following symptoms:
From just below the lungs to the end of the tale she can not right herself or move, occasionally she will respond to stimulation in that area. she is not eating and regurgitated water which I helped her drink the day before. She is a bit overreactive and bolts when someone nears the cage, she didn't do that before this (was especially gregarious) at the vet, an x ray showed a big gas bubble but massage has not relieved it (that I can tell) She m
akes 2 of her bottom side scales move in a peculiar way as if she were trying to shed skin there, the tissue underneath is a little more pink than the rest of her underside but the vet did not suspect infection. She had v mite infection a month ago and was treated successfully with soaking and mineral oil application, also pest strip above (but not in) the cage. The situation at hand appeared after the mite infection cleared and she soaked herself during that but can not pull her tail end out of the water on her own now.... I had posted to an earlier thread on a similar sounding situation and someone suggested I make a new thread to get people's attention. Hope this works and can save her. Her cage is 88 on the hot end, 74 on the cool end, 60 percent 70 percent humidity most of the time, it is a 36X12X16 tank. Oh her tail is usually lolled over to the side while the top 1/3 of her looks normal any ideas would be most appreciated short of euthanizing her which I would use as a last result...
