Maybe you just picked him up as he'd just been having a drink. |

mt temps are at 32, sometimes he makes a whistling noise but i know pythons and boas retain there lungs and release a quick breath of air which creates the whistling noise, hes never done it before, niether has my other one, so im a bit shocked lol, i checked inside his mouth and theres no exess saliva or mucus and no bubbles, will keep an eye on him tho. ive just got a dribbler lol
thanks for all ur replies : ) |

i'd monitor him, like hodgie said check for wheezing or clicking noises, and make sure your temps are high enough |

My male did this, took him to the vet and he was given the all clear.
If your worried put your Royals mouth up to your ear and listen for weezing sounds, if you here any or you see bubbles or mucus then take it straight to the vet. |

Not sure- seen your reply to the thread on the other dribbly royal post. It's not something I've encountered. Hopefully someone else will be able to advise. |
