    Re: please help!! bp not eating

    Hi,

    For the record it is important to finish the course of treatment. The symptoms can go away before the disease and stopping the tratment just lets it come back.

    You say he has stuck shed around his nostrils so I would try and get that off first to see if it fixes the wheezing ( shedding and stuck shed can cause the sounds - that's why we look inside the mouth for excess mucus and try and listen to the snakes lungs if possible before deciding it is an RI ).

    We have a sticky which should help with the stuck shed.

    Double check the temps and things against our caresheet but a sick BP might not eat.

    Pictures of your enclosure might help people make more specific suggestions as well.
