You can treat mild RI's with f10 and a nebuliser not done this myself but should be able to find out exactly how if you google it

I've seen the f10 and nebuliser method but haven't got access to one and i might need the £50 it would cost for one for vet treatment if i need it. The vics and eucalyptus oil method above is the one Im using but it didn't have as much info in the one i found so thanks for that link del.

Could the ri have been present when i got the snake 3 weeks ago?

I'd say it don't just come on that quick
You see the place you got your royal from gets
Quite a lot of imports in
First thing is to help the poor thing
I'd be inclined to ring the shop and see what they have to say about it
See if they will help with cost ect.

I know this ain't been said BUT
And I'm sure you know

Has it just shed , going into shed, had a bad shed,
Could it be possible that it just came out of its water bowl

What are the signs
Clicking, saliva, whistling

The f10 in the nebuliser is what BHB do with RI's. However, better to use the funds for the vets, as you say.

Well after quarantining the pastel i checked over my other snakes and it looks as though my other pick up from rep room(bhb) has an ri too its not as bad as the pastel but the little spider is clicking when breathing and when i checked her gums it looks like bubbling saliva too so that's 2 snakes I'll be treating now :-( hope it hasn't gone too far as i haven't handled them that much apart from cleaning so never noticed any early symptoms. im kicking myself now for not handling and checking them over more but i thought since they came across the pond i should let them settle longer than my other snakes had when i got them

Personally I'd be inclined to leave the feed until after the vets as the Tuesday trip may be a bit soon after a feed. May regurge.
