My alby burm just started weezing and occasionally sneezing and kind of gagging... kind of hard to describe...it sounds more like a growl. But she coughed earlier and weezed when I took her for her walk outside.
My vet is out of town for the moment...for about 3 weeks, and there arent any other vets close enough to treat my burm.
Should I up the heat in her cage? Its at 85 with a basking spot of about 92.

Any suggestions??

yes definitely bump her heat up about 5or 8 degrees and get her humidity level up to 80-90%. This should clear her up within a week or so. Hope this helps and keep us posted. Todd
