    Breathing problems and thick saliva

    I am 90% sure it’s a RI. My last rescue had one too and died. Now my male rescue is also making the same breathing gasps and such. I started him on antibiotics tonight, but I’m so worried it’s too late. His heat is all the way up on his basking side, about 108-110 consistently. He has a big tank...
