I've noticed in the last couple of days that my Phayrei is blowing some bubbles from his nose. I plan to get him to the vet on Saturday, but wanted to inquire about colds and resp infections here first.
His pen/table, at the time I noticed the bubbles, was is my garage, and was being heated to the low 70's - mid 80's depending on the time of day and location in the pen. I've since moved the table indoors next to a window, and have kept the ambient temp a bit higher... 80's.
He has been eating really well, and moving around.. All his normal behavior seems okay. He does go into his water bowl and dunk his head which is the only "new" thing I've noticed. The bubbles also seem to show up more when he is not basking, or on the warm end of the pen.
I'm just curious to know what differences there are between a cold and resp infection, and if there is a simple way to tell.
Thanks!
