I would raise the temps up 5 degree or so and make sure the humidity is correct...keep an eye on the boa, if it doesn't improve, a vet visit may be needed.



But with most RI I've worked with, the high temps/humidity took care of it within a week...



The cold temps may have caused it, but I doubt so quickly...I've found that RI will develop even at proper temps, if the humidity drops too low...the humidity is just as important as heat...



Hope this helps, and good luck.
