Female BP swelling and "farting sound"...any ideas?

sadie711 Apr 07, 2004 09:00 PM

Our 02 F BP has some swelling and is making a farting sound. When you feel up the length of her body, you can feel air moving when she makes the noise. Any idea what this could be??

I never heard a ball or any other snake fart...at all....

snakes never sneezed here.....can they even sneeze?..people say it all the time on these forums....?

I do hear the hissing....huffing and puffing....and I have heard the wheezings of a sick snake......of all sizes....

but gas ?...........wow........

so.....I guess I must say.......use dog food or lab chow...and stop the bean diet........
