    Health Concern

    I rescued a BCI red tail that had a severe case of RI. I got him to a vet and 13 shots of batryl and 2 at home treatments later the snake is now 100% healthy. After seeing RI at first hand im a little skeptic if a snake has it or not. I was looking at my ball and ive noticed his nostrils were shiny. Sort of a little wet looking. I dont see any bubbles, I hear no wheezing or anything else. Am I just being too paranoid about this?

    Yes, it sounds like you are.

    Just keep an eye out to see if the symptoms become worse. Based on what you describe, I don’t think you don't need to worry.
