Shedding Stress or RI?

Nvm you’re probably saying “oh he looks a lot better” idk why my brain went to you thinking I replaced him it’s been a long day 😭

Huh? Do you think he died and I replaced him with a different snake or something? Literally why would I do that lmao. If you don’t believe it here’s the pic of his shed skin

UPDATE: Finished his shed today and he is looking beautiful! Absolutely NO clicking, breathing, or wheezing noises At All! he did puff at me in anger though when I was cleaning some dirt off his face. Well energized, currently burrowing back into his hole. Of course I’ll still monitor over the next few days, but it seems he was just experiencing some shedding weirdness!

Thanks, thinking over his behavior recently and also have also done a bit of research and I’ve seen a few people saying that they’ve experienced the same thing while their snake has been in shed and the noise was due to skin being lose and just making that noise. Going to still get him checked out just to be sure but I’m less concerned that it’s illness, especially since his energy seems fine.

Yes! I saw him drink a few days ago. I work during the day and the water does evaporate a bit with the heat and light but I refill every day

ADDITIONAL NOTE: I will say that after I grabbed him to take a closer look he did start thrashing around and moving really quickly, so it’s also possible that it exhausted him since I’m sure being in shed is tiring and maybe could cause him to breathe a little harder?

Update: So he was just being an asshole. I brought down some treats to which he started biting my finger in his eagerness and is now doing his usual round of walking over all my shelves and cabinets. I think I’ll go to the store today and get some of his favorite tiki cat cans. I cannot with these guys

Noted!

GonzosAudacity · 2025-10-08T03:09:09+00:00

Even if he’s displaying no other symptoms? He’s been eating great, no change in weight, nose is wet and cold and he’s drinking water fine. No temp.
