If its only when being handled and the vet has given the all clear medically then its possible that the increase in breathing when all snakes are handled is just resulting in slight wheezing. This could be down to something as simple as slightly small nostrils, I used to work with a guy that used to drive me mad with his noisy breathing, nothing wrong with him he just breathed noisily through his nose.
You could try at the next clean out using paper towel for a few weeks as a temporary test, see if it improves but I would have thought the wood chip (beech?) is the least dusty of all the substrate with the exception of the paper towel, and use caution around cat litter, a lot have odour absorbers and chemicals in which is fine for cats that point their bum at it once or twice a day but not so good for something wriggling through it face first. |
