Ok guys. Bear with me please. This is what I was trying to describe is this normal? If not im bringing him/her to the wildlife/reptile vet. There is a slight whistle in nose now. ive been leaving him/her alone with the exception of this video and the first few pics so as not to keep stressing.

Mine does that too sometimes when basking.

stressed breathing, looks normal to me.
they tend to do that if they see something they like, something happens, or if they need to be more alert for some reason. in other words every time they catch you staring at them.
try to use your ninja stealth and see what he does when relaxed.

sooooo cuuuuuute ;___; his eyes are soooo big, and hes all shiny........

always be on the watch for discharge from eyes, nose or the like, as well as rustle sounds when breathing. whistling can be numerous things, stuck shed near the nose, for example.

That's normal. BTS have multiple "styles" of breathing they use at different times. That is just one of them.

[Katrina]

Yep, normal!!

Lol ok guys thank you so much everyone yet again. Now that i got a video of what he does i can rest assured he will be fine and im not describing it wrong or missing anything. I will be on the lookout for any discharge crackling etc (I know all about this fom rescue boas but not for lizard). So tha kful for this sote ivebeen rereading the caresheets and the like.

I tried using my ninja skills to see him/here breathing when taking a nap, but im apparently not a good ninja because one eye will then snap open haha it does seem like breathing calms down at nap/rest time.
I dont want to "cramp his style" so ill back off now lol

Still working on a name. Thats a whole other case lol you guys have so many cute names for your blueys. Thanks again everyone.
