She was eating fine before. Shes about 4 months old. 4 inches. She was eating medium sized crickets now. Shes now opening her mouth and making a hissing noise whilke areching her head back. Almost looks like hic ups. What should i do.

Answers:

Check your temp and humidity levels.

The setups ambient temp should be around 80-90F with a basking spot of around 90-105F and around 30-60% humidity.

Do you have UV lighting? Veileds need ultra violet light to properly digest.

Definitely would not hurt to setup an appointment with a vet.


Find a herp vet and get help. When they stop eating it's usually bad. There could be worms or an impaction.
do you have a heat stone?sounds like may not be digesting.they have to have heat for this to take place thats why you buy a stone cause the light sources aren't good for this.please if you don't know how to care for it,give it to someone who does.
