Can anyone lend their advise on this: I have a baby redtail that may have an RI ...she makes the clicking noises..her throat will sometimes inflate like a frogs mating call..yet she is eating for me, flicking her tongue normally... i heard snakes with an RI wont eat..so her eating is a good sign...is this true???..
Thanks !!!...Charles

In the later stages of a RI then they may stop eating but symptoms vary from snake to snake. If suspects an RI its better safe then sorry the sooner you catch it the better so a vet checkup would be a good idea.
