    Yeah, like i said, i would just let the snake settle in. If for some reason, the snake has an RI, one week is not going to kill it. You just got it. So the snake went from the breeder to the show to you. That is a lot of stress. And then you throw in a vet visit with a culture and exam and stuff.

    Ask Jacob aka JMcrook. He was like me and stressed all the time thinking Phyllis had an RI. We both asked the retic FBs pages and everything and what we both learned was retics are noisy breathers. Also what you will learn is they are determined, smart, some love to push and turn their face to hamburger, piss a lot, poop a lot, and eat a lot lol.

    Now dont get me confused. If the snake is wheezing, blowing bubbles and open mouth when sitting on the cage floor, you have problems. But retics will be noisy if you are holding them and they are busy. Caesar gets pretty loud sometimes when he is going hard and we are basically wrestling with me trying to stop him and him being determined and wanting to go somewhere.
