i have a coastal carpet and i have just noticed she is wheezing very slightly.... it isnt a constant wheeze or a loud one but every so often i can hear it...only when i hold her right up to my ear. now i havent noticed this before but i also have never held her up to my ears like this before.... her enclosure sits around the 30 degree mark and she isnt in a draft or anything like that...is there any reason anyone can think of that she is doing this or is it just a noise she makes.... whezzing is probably the closest thing i can say the noise she is making is..... may be a hiss of some form also.... any help would be appreciated.... cheers bronson

Is she a big girl?
Our bigger pythons breathing when they are out and a little nervous sounds a little funny.
Or if that perhaps a loose scale in the nasal passage?

Sounds like it may be just hissing, if its only occasional.
I guess just watch her closely, to be sure.
