hey all , would really appreciate any help with this.
500 gram female pastel, perfect beast in every way.
3 days ago i notice a mucous splash on the side of her tub(open topped rack), check her out and sure enough she's got a little puffyness in her throat , and a barely discernable wheeze. probably from the a/c.
seven other balls and ten other snakes are all fine , go figure...

i've heard that this can go away with heat and humidity so i put her in a closed tub , sprayed her , gave fresh h2o , and three days hence , it seems much worst. yikes ! i havn't had a case of this since 1985 , and i really forgot what to do next , short of the vet thing , which at best , will be monday morn.
what can i do to alleviate her situation , at least temporarily ?
is anyone out there going to white plains show this weekend that i can get some drugs from ?
thanx in advance for your time , ck
