I Think My BP has RI

Update:
We took my snake to the vet today. He does have RI, and thankfully there is nothing else wrong with him. We got some meds. Thank you all so much for the help! I was gone for awhile because I had to convince my parents he was sick. I also got the humidity/ temp gauge one of you suggested. Hope you all have a good year, and I'll give an update when he's healthy again.

It's been a few weeks, so I thought it would be nice to post an update.

I've been giving my BP his shots every three days for the past few weeks (I think the last one is today). It's weird, it seems like his symptoms are very slowly going away (VERY SLOWLY). I've noticed a lot less yawning and gasping. He still has the occasional moment where he will show symptoms of RI. We're going to take him back to the vet to see what further actions we should take, and get him force-fed (He has not eaten since we got him, and I've been trying every week). It's hard caring for a sick snake when it's your first one, I've had a few slip-ups, but it is nice to see him getting better. He's still very active and strong, so he isn't getting worse. I'll give another update soon (hopefully when he's better!).

Bye
