BTS sneezing ALOT

terrytastic Jul 21, 2003 07:09 PM

Hey guys,,,

My BTS seems to be sneezing alot latley. It started about 2-3 weeks ago. It doesn't seem to be getting any worse but it certainly isn't going away either. Is there something wrong? Should I be doing something to help her or is this just something they do?

Thanx

They tend to sneez a lot, especially when eating or drinking.

What temperature is the warm area and the cool area? What type of substrate are you using?

My BTS sneezes quite a bit too. Especially when he drinks. The clown sticks his whole snout in the water and then he starts sneezing like crazy. lol.

The cooler side of the enclosure is normally between 84-88 and the other is around 105.

In the enclosure I use Repti-carpet for where her food and water bowls are, Bark chips covering most of the enclosure and at the far end (near the water) there is moss (helps her with moisture and cooling down).
