Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Generally its caused from low temps.
RI is respiratory infection. But it being as bad as it sounds, a temp raise won't help. Bring them into a herp vet.

burms are extremely, extremely prone to ri's. if not addressed/treated asap, it can very easily develop into something very serious

raise the temp to 82. and buy tea tree oil put them in a conatiner with some cotton balls dipped in the oil for periods no more than an hour, you can put the cotton balls in the cage but there must be no way for air to get out of the cage or just do each snake separate in a tote. the idea is for them to breathe in the tea tree oil like we would vicks, also find a vet that has experience with reptiles

That is some awesome advice Ed wow I've never thought of that, maybe next time i should try that! The snakes got much better the vet gave them some shots and some shots for us to put on it every 3 days, and for now they haven't showed any symptoms of RI which is awesome! Thanks for the help everybody!
