    High Pitched Sounds?

    Hi,

    Today I gave my bp a quick warm bath in my sink. I started to hear very high pitched sounds and started to get worried. When I put him back into his tank, I heard it again, thats when I decided to post here to see what was the matter. I don't know if this is a normal sound that they might communicate with or something, so could someone who knows please tell me about this?

    Thanks,
    Kevin

    I may as well say what you're going to hear.. can you provide the temperatures of the cool side/warm side, humidity, substrate(guessing newspaper by your sig. ).. etc.

    Also, BP's dont really need baths unless they smell for whatever reason..

    Cheers

    I meant the readings from the thermometers and the humidity %.

    Also from what I have read, check his/her nostrils as well for some stuck shed, this can cause that as well.

    Again, this is from lots of reading, I haven't had this happen to myself.

    Do you know the hot and cool side temps? You'll need to give a little info so more people can help you. Did the high pitch sound, sound like a wistle?

    Edit: Man it took me that long to type that? lol Beat me

    LIke said before, it could possibly be a piece of shed in the nostril. If she starts to make a popping sound or breath from her mouth it could be a respiratory infection. More experienced people than me will reply.
