I have a two year old male ball python that seems to have contracted a respiratory illness. He is not eating, rubbing his snout against the walls of his cage (or anything in his immediate vicinity, for that matter), and excreting a clear, bubbly liquid from his mouth. What should I do? What kind of medication does he require? I've used Baytril extensively with tortoises, and I have the dosing for them pretty well down. Is it the same for ball pythons? Is there possibility of allergic reaction? Are injections even in order?
