Yafe - Albino Carpet - FINAL - Progression Thread

[dakski]

I had Yafe out tonight for a few minutes, and good news and bad news.

Good news. He seems great. He's active and calm and tongue flicks galore with now signs of mucus or a returning RI.

Bad news. He made a few popping sounds when he wrapped around my arm and gripped me tight. To be clear, when he made the sounds, they were quiet/mild and he showed zero discomfort when he made them. In the past, when he gripped me, and made the sounds, he would grip tighter, and was clearly uncomfortable. None of that tonight.

I think it's either the first time since he's felt better he's really gripped something tight and there was a little residual gunk clearing out, or there's some residual gunk is his nasal cavity that I am hoping a good shed will clear out, or time will.

I am about 99% sure that if the RI was going to come back, it would have done so by now. He's eating, he's peeing and pooping, he active, he's acting happy, and he's not making the noises often or consistently. Additionally, he has yet to rest with his head up in the past 2 weeks. He is always resting/sleeping with his head down or flat.

I wanted to update everyone, but to be clear, I am NOT concerned. This is more informational and for others that might have a snake that has gone through an RI, they can heal, but still show residual symptoms for a while.

I am very convinced that he is fine.
