I've been monitoring my snake recently and i've noticed that when he breathes there is a slight wheeze. nothing is obstructing his nostrils. I was wondering if i should continue monitering him and see if it goes away or go straight to a vet to determine the problem. Also if there is any possible way to reverse it since its just slight. All opinions are appreciated

thanks

Brock,
. What is your cage humidity and temperature? The one thing I did not mention in the other post is that if they are kept too dry or hot they will sometimes develop a dry wheeze. Making adjustments in temperature and humidity will often correct this problem. Whether you decide to go to the vet depends on lots of factors. If you have limited experience I would say to go right away. If you are very experienced you should look at the total snake to determine if there is a problem.
