Hey,

It was a really wierd exoerience but everything is fine now. The day after I posted here the status of the green was much worse and I thought I was actually losing him. There was a severe respiratory infection present and skin condition looked worse. So as advised above, I changed the substrate to a dry one and added a heat pad to the set up. I placed a small water dish in his cage and soaked him daily. I also treated the snake with antibiotics that I had for the infection. After the treatment, his condition start to get better everyday. Today he shed and the blisters are gone with only a little scarring left behind. The hissing sound is also gone.

Thanks for all the advise.

My question is that I have another snake being kept in a similar humid environment. This snake is a female yellow and she seems to have no problems with her setup. She does not soak herself often and eats well. Should I switch her to dry setup with daily soakings, too? My only problem is that the place I live in is too dry and I am afraid that the snake will suffer.

Thanks again
Yasin
