another possible snake problem !!!!!!!!!!

my red tail boa has been have what seems to be a breathing problem. it sounds like his nose is getting stuffed up then i hear a big burst of air come out of his nose and it sounds like he is weezing throught his nose.i checked his nose for any liquids and everywhere else and found not signs of any parasites. also he still has not defacated for at least 4 to 5 weeks. i have tried soaking him I soak him for 30 min. 3 times a day and nothing is happening.

Is your snake getting ready to shed. Sometimes when they are about to shed they make sounds like you described.

If not going into shed: What you described are signs of respiratory illness. Does he hold his head up off the bottom of the cage a lot?

I'd get him to a vet ASAP.

Open mouth or noisy breathing are signs of RI. Raising the temp and a trip to the vet are my suggestions.
