Hi,
A suitemate just finished packing and has decided to give me her snow corn. It is a beautiful snake, looks to be ~2 years old.
However, while I was handling it, I noticed that the snake makes an almost inaudible dry whistling noise occasionally as it breathes. Is this a certain sign of a respiratory infection? And if so, is it mild or are all respiratory infections severe?
Stool is normal, and there is no mucous buildup of any sort. Eyes are clear and it is still quite active in its movements. It has no feeding problems.
Please let me know. This snake shares the same room as my others... don't want anything happening to them!

Edit: I've raised the basking temperature to 91 degrees. I hope this helps.
