Last night my burm was doing something I've never seen before. When he would breath in, part of his body would litterally raise up off the floor a couple inches. Then it would go back down and he would breath out and it was really loud, didn't sound like weezing or that he was congested or anything, just like he was breathing out really hard.

I left the humidifier on all night last night and this morning he isn't doing it anymore he's breathing just normal.

He just barely ate the day before (monday) and some time during the night / early morning he urinated. He also looks like he is going into shed cycle, his eyes aren't cloudy but he's noticably darker and his scales look more, I don't know, plasticy I guess. I don't know if any of that would have anything to do with his breathing wierd.

Thanks in advance,
Ben
