Fast breathing

[lyoto]

My baby ball is breathing fairly fast tonight and I think its cause of the stress from all the movement in the room today or the changes in the temp but im not too sure what is causing it.
I just wanted to see if anyone knew why he is breathing like this?

Haha, no worries, whenever stressed or in duress, snakes will breath hard. He will calm down, i wouldn't worry about it unless it never stops for a couple days.

They do it for many reasons, if the snake is not sick, then they do it out of fear and stress. If the snake is in a high traffic area, it is most likely out of fear and stress. Nothing much to worry about, just leave the snake alone for a little while to calm down, maybe move the snake to a less frequented area.

Actually can you give a quick run down on your entire setup?
