Well to answer all of you in one shot here goes. I live in New Jersey up in the mountains on the border of New York and Pa. I did remove the other snake from the cage. My local pet store had said that it was ok to have them together and they seemed close as silly as that sounds. They were always tangled up together or hanging out in the same little hut. But since gulpy became sick I moved the other to a different cage. I cleaned the cage really well and threw away all the items inside and purchased new. I also looked up some other things online and was told sometimes putting them in water helps with dehydration. Which I did. I sat up with him til 4am like you would an infant making sure the body temp was good and giving a little nudge each time he looked like he wasn't breathing. His breathing seems to be really slow way slower then normal and he seems to be really extra skinny. I did try feeding him some water through a dropper and some tiny fish with some tweezers lol. His usual diet is tuffys or rosies he eats around 6 per week. The last time he ate was about two weeks ago which isn't normal he always loves his fish. I don't hear any sounds coming from him or see any type of mucus or anything so as far as a respiratory thing I don't know. Luckily so far he seems to be doing a wee bit better. He is moving finally but still wont eat or drink. I placed some tiny guppys in his water in case he gets hungry. they are small enough that he wouldn't have to work hard to eat them. I see no body abnormalities though his head seems to slump to one side and he refuses to open his mouth at all. He will swim when put in the water but quickly gets out. I'm really trying the best I can to keep him comfy. I replaced his bedding with a brand new pillow case and put a bottle of hot water for warmth because the heat pad is with the other snake. He seems to be more comfortable on the pillow case then on the wood chips. He moves around more though I think I will put the wood chips back tomorrow. This was a sudden thing he just seemed to get sick on Saturday but was fine before that. I feel like I'm writing a novel here but I'm trying to cover all my bases. Thanks everyone for your help and support. Now that he is moving around a bit more I'm hopeful that he will be okay.
