Hey all.
Picked up my new little Woma 2 days ago, awesome little snake. Much to my and my girlfriends horror we have seen him 'sneezing' or 'hiccuping' quite a lot over the last day and a half.
Just thought I would post this thread, because all research I did pointed at RI. Everywhere I looked was RI and RI. Despite the fact he was still active, ate easily the day we got him home etc etc we got worried sick about possible RI.
Turns out, all that worrying for nothing.
A short trip to the vet later it actually turns out that a bit of sand that stuck to his food cut the inside of his mouth, which was just causing some irritation. Jeez, the relief! No where could I read of any possibilities other than RI, so just figured I would leave this up incase someone else was looking in the future
