Hello people!
It's been a while. I hope you are all well!

I have this little wormy (pretty much 2 yrs now hah)
And I had a good look at him today and he came across as a bit inactive. He does look like he's going to shed this week so that might be it but usually he's in full hunting mode..

I observed him for about 10 minutes and it kind of looked like he did a tiny little cough twice... Is this anything I need to worry about?
I have heard my 4 year old corn do a sneezy cough once and it wasn't anything but the combination of being inactive and coughing is new to me..

Love,
Leasha :)

I think it was a possible hiss.. I have heard my 3 yr old hiss at me before but it was a bit louder.. Maybe snake hisses are different from one and other haha... I could be the age difference aswell.. I looked at him again today and he seems fine. His eyes are kinda cloudy so he should be shedding soon!

You sure he's not shedding and grumpy and actually hissing at you? Scared me the first time I heard mine hiss, rather than a 'hissss' it's more like a 'huff'. Of course I'm not saying for certain he's not got an RI, are there other signs? http://www.anapsid.org/rti.html
If you are unsire, definitely take him to a vet for a checkup, better to know for sure than wonder until its too late.
