My female Lotan has been venting a LOT. Nearly every time I see her, her mouth is slightly open. Her temps are about the same as usual, fed as usual, bathed as usual. Could this be a respiratory issue? What would cause her to do this all of a sudden? She's been doing it for about 3 days now. I thought it was maybe the heat in my room, but her temps are normal.

Thanks for the help in advance <3

Has the area around her nose shed recently or look like it's going to shed?
Mine gaps a lot when his nose is shedding as the inside of their nostrils sheds so i have to gently pull out the skin, looks a bit like lizard boggies.
Sometimes loose substrate like sand can also block their nostrils.

Sorry i couldn't be any more help.

Hmm, I have noticed that her nostrils do look a little bit plugged. And I have her on tile, so its not a substrate issue :p I'm going to go check that option now. Thanks so much!!

Well, it turns out that she did have leftover shed skin in her nostrils! I'm hoping that solves it :)

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
