hello all i may have a problem but cant quiet figure it out i have 2 of my boas in a 6 ft breeder cage and the female is perfectly fine but as of recently the male has developed something some sort of sound when it breathes that i can only describe as a stuffed nose but what i cant figure out is why i always stays on the cool side of the tank (78 degrees) and never goes on the warm side or near the basking spot(88 degrees) now from what i understand if it was a respitory problem the in sufficent temps would more then likely cause it (right or wrong ?) so why wouldnt the male just stay closer to the basking spot in order to raise its body temp? any suggestions? ...im gonna get it to a vet im just looken to find a reptile vet thats all
