Re: Help! snake with wound and ill!!!!

Hi Nicholas. That certainly does sound like a respiratory infection. Obviously the best course of action would be to get to the vet as soon as you can. If that's not possible you should get her into a clean enclosure. Use kitchen paper as substrate, and provide only a small water bowl. Raise the temperature by a couple of degrees above the norm for this snake. Ensure there is plentiful ventilation.
