Re: Worried about Miriam :-(

Lori
sorry to hear Miriam is not doing well
she does not look thin to me
quite a few of my snakes slow down at this time of the year, even if I try to fool them by keeping light and heat on a summer schedule - it seems they still kind of know what time of year it is
but Miriam seems to have something more than that going on
if this was my snake, I'd try warm baths with electrolytes (my low intervention plan for many problems) in addition to raising the heat in the tank
after that I'd be stumped and take her to the vet
