I need some advice on a few things I’m hoping you guys can help..
Two weeks ago.. i noticed my Murray darling wasn't sounding right.. after I feed her, she was acting weird for a few days afterwards i noticed that she was making popping noises and wasn't opening her mouth, so I took her back to where I got her from as he said any problems bring her back and he will let me know, anyways so i did that the next day he gave her a full check over. and said that she was fine and the reason that she was acting this way was because she was about to shed so leave her to shed and then if it's still the same bring her back.. Anyways I had a thought that she might be having a Respiratory infection, anyways week later she had shredded, and thought everything was normal went to feed her again.. Which was fine.. Put her back in her home.. Left her for 3 days at this stage she normally comes out around the second night, she still hadn't come out.. so I went looking for her.. Found her under her hide, which then i noticed she was even breathing much at all.. She couldn't open her mouth bubbles coming from the side her mouth and she was wheezing so at this stage I’m freaking out and rushed her back to the place i got her.. Where they said she has a small respiratory infection.. so they called the owner of the shop which then had a look at her went on to tell me that yes she did have a small respiratory infection two weeks ago. (but he went on to tell me that she was fine and was clear of everything only two weeks ago) and said he will keep her over the next few days and make sure she doesn't get worse.. my few questions are should i believe anything this guy is saying..and take her to a vet or should i listen to what he has to say and let him do his thing i was very pissed off that he had the balls to say she was fine when she wasn't he was saying that they need to give her a injection to clear the respiratory infection but is this something that just clears up afterwards or is this still a very sick snake. i don't want to loose her, or is the snake now more likely to keep getting this problem now that she has it, anyways i don't want to keep take her to this guy or pay stupid amounts in vet bill any advice would be good..
