My BP is my first snake and she has me slightly worried right now. Ive had her a week and a half and I just noticed her eyes have turned white. I havent touched her in 2 days since I fed her so cant give an exact day this happened.
My first thought was she is beginning to shed, but she is not being aggressive and is not showing any other physical signs. In fact she seems more friendly than the last time I handled her. The few times I was able to touch her she either balled up or hugged my hand and stared at me. This time she stayed relaxed and instead of being docile kept moving around in my hands. Again she didnt look like she was trying to get away or setting herself up to strike (although not certain what that would look like because the only time she tried was when I fed her, and that time she stood up for lack of a better description).
Have had slight difficulty maintaining proper environment for her with 2 lamps and a UTH. Daytime temps for her is 90 hot side, 80 cool side and nighttime 80 hot side 75 cool side (switch to a blue bulb at night). I havent bought one of the reptile foggers yet but I have been using a spray bottle twice a day to regulate humidity and I can keep it between 40 and 50 rH. I work in HVAC so I actually have a surface temp lazer to keep an eye on the UTH and that ground section of her thank is usually about 85. I keep her hide in the middle so she isnt making much of a sacrifice for temperature but usually she prefers sitting in the tree I bought. In a week getting a bigger tank and planning on using two hides.
Basically I dont know if I did something wrong and now she is sick, or if this is something natural. After I fed her she went into her hide and i have noticed her changing positions but she hasnt come out. In fact this is the most active Ive seen her since I bought her. Seems like she is pacing the tank watching me. So looking for some advice on whether I should take her to the vet, or if Im just worrying unnecessarily. Please help. Thanks.
