| if she's in blue it could be a little piece of shed skin rattling around her nasal passages making the 'wheeze' |

nope she has never hissed at me before, i dont think she was shocked as she always watches me when i change water and i've been sure not to make any sudden movements as she is in blue. |

Griffin gets wheezy when hes in blue. At 1st I was panicing cos I thought he had something wrong. But he was fine AAlso there was the possibility that the wheezy sound was Griffin's pathetic hissing  He may be a big boy, but his hissing sounds more like a cat farting! LMAO |

I have to agree with GP. My big guy wheezes and huffs and puffs due to this, and one of my other sneezes a bit. |

| maybe a gastroentoritic infection, if it stops feeding, then go to a vet and get a wide spectrum anti-biotic, should clear it up |

no such thing as gastroentoritic, you mean gastrointestinal, or gastroenteritis, which is the stomach and intestines, absolutely nothing to do with stomach, or anything gastrointestinal.
potentially a respiritory infection, the easiest way to clear an RI in corns is to up the temps to about 32. Broad spectrum antibiotics can help, most likely it will be oral baytril or marbocyl injection.
However, before going down that road, see what happens after he has shed
