Respiratory infection? HELP!

I noticed tonight that my female BP (possibly gravid) was moving around in her tub with her mouth slightly agape. When I took her out I could hear her "popping" from the mouth and she's blowing spit bubbles. She has been acting a little more freakish the last couple of days, but I was thinking she may be gravid...coiling, laying in her water dish (which she NEVER does), laying with her head sticking up in a corner of the tank. However, she's eating like a pig. She's eaten two small rats in the last three days and always hits it hard and fast...she's eaten five meals in Feb.

Temps are 82 cool end 90 warm end. Humidity will fluctuate from 60% to 80%. Thoughts/suggestions? I'm planning on taking her to the vet tomorrow if they can get her in. Any advice is greatly appreciated!!!

Tim
