RI? 
I gave my BCI a soak in the tub the other day and when he gets out of the water it sounds like he is wheezing, but after he is out for a bit he stops. There is no gurgling or anything in or around his nose or mouth. My ? is he just releasing air, because he puffs up with air when he is in the water.

my boa had RI and I did take him to the vet but I dont think the antibiotics helped. Well he stopped wheezing alot since but he mostly wheezes when I take him a bath. One of my other boas wheezed last week when she wrapped around my neck and also on sun. when she took the rat, I dont no if she has RI. I know this didnt help but I hope yours is alright cuz the vet bill sucks

It is just water that is on the end of his nose. As long as he doesn’t make this noise all the time I would say he is fine. I would keep an eye on him just to be extra sure though. If you start to notice that he does it when not soaked or mucus or bubles appear a trip to the vet is in order.

Okay. Thanks. It’s almost like he is releasing the air from his lungs like he was holding his breath.
