What's going on?

[Halles]

I'ma first time snake owner. I've had my Sinaloan Milk for about a month, and he's begun to make these strange squeaking noises. They're high pitched. I'm worried that there might be something wrong with his breathing. Help?

is it possible that hes going into a shed cycle?

Squeaking? Hmmm....like Julian said, he might be going into shed. Also you might want to check for mucus discharge around the nostrils and mouth. If he's clear, he's probably ok. But mucus and wheezing, crackly, breathing means a respiratory infection. I've never heard a snake make squeaking noises though, so I couldn't tell you without seeing him. Check for the RI, check for shed cycle, and make sure the environment in the cage is correct. Good luck!

Thanks, turns out he is getting ready to shed. No worries I checked, no RI

Good. Glad to hear he's doing well.
