Right guys this ISN'T a corn, but I thought I'd post here anyway for educational value more than anything, and to show you that even people who do their best to keep issues away from their snakes it CAN happen.

The following pics are to show you a health problem that could affect your cornsnake(s) easily.

Any guesses from people (no one with experience/in depth knowledge of this sort of thing in the past though) as to what this might be??

I'd like you guys that are unsure of things to post and ask questions etc, so that it can help you learn more.





These photos were taken about 10 minutes after I noticed this issue, and by best guesses would have been in the early stages of this problem.
He was treated for the issue and has since made a full recovery, however it did make me think a bit more about possibilities of habitat issues.

RI
Sta~ple Posted - 15/11/2010 : 16:35:28
Can I have? Is that a valid question? :D
Gemsyork Posted - 15/11/2010 : 10:31:53
It looks like RI I have seen 2 cases of it in less than a week but they were both in corns

Dam you Kehhlyr. OK so its not had fairy liquid, And its not serious so it cant be mouth rot or an Respiratory illness.

Is it just drooling, a particularly good looking black king snake slithered past?

Did it have bad breath and you brushed its teeth?

Did it watch the new jackass 3D movie and vomit in its mouth a little bit?

Attacked by a rabid dog?

That's it I'm out of ideas!

Nooooo,its not fair!!! Will everyone please ask,even if they know as I need to know please!!
Kehhlyr Posted - 14/11/2010 : 23:42:13
I was waiting for any more questions, there's been very few questions.

/ninja edit
It's not due to soapy water bowls or washing up stuff, so that's out.
Mort13 Posted - 14/11/2010 : 23:34:52
Not as I'm aware of. I think Kehhlyr is just a big tease lol!!! I want to know!
lotabob Posted - 14/11/2010 : 22:53:18
Did anyone ever reveal what this is?
lotabob Posted - 10/11/2010 : 00:48:57
I honestly have no idea so I will say it ate a mouse from a shampoo testing lab.
sullysteve Posted - 09/11/2010 : 23:22:29
I think it's FMS. It's not life threatening just annoying. Right?
eeji Posted - 09/11/2010 : 22:27:17
I've never had anything like it with my lot, so I'll guess its an RI.
chrish Posted - 09/11/2010 : 21:02:56
Fairy liquid in the water bowl
mikerichards Posted - 09/11/2010 : 20:50:45
its not mouth rot, mucus in the mouth doesnt necessarily indicate mouth rot, it doesnt mean it isnt either, but mouth rotting snakes dont generally blow bubbles!!!
stotty01 Posted - 09/11/2010 : 20:30:56
does she always rub her/his head against the viv? if you can see any mucus in there its mouth rot :(

first off quarantine it as it is contagious!!! you can clean it out with a cotton bud and 1 part hydrogen peroxide and 2 part water dont put to much in as it can get rid of the bad as well as the good bacteria

early symptoms of mouth rot?
hiper2009 Posted - 09/11/2010 : 20:00:33
I'm going to say RI as my old corn Romeo had this same problem and the vet said it was RI.
