Hey all. I recently moved my 3 snakes into my new house, and a couple weeks ago, my red tail stopped eating. Shes been a fantastic eater in the past, well I took her out. She looked like she was losing weight, and had loose skin from the loss.

I had to leave town for a little over a week, and when I came back yesterday, she is laying on her side, and kind of lethargic. My vet is out of town till tuesday, so I have an early morning appt with him, then.

Any ideas from the forum on what it could be? She had a slight resp. infection two months ago from cold temps in the office she was kept in. (I had her at work, and someone kept unplugging the powerstrip at night)

Thanks in advance
