Yeah I thought of that. I've heard it really not as common as people think though. We bought one dumeril a couple weeks before we bought the dead snake, and she had the mites, we then brought in 2 other dumerils at the same time as the ball python. Considering we have 25 balls of course I am worried about a contagious disease. Since there is no evidence of mites in any of the main ball rack, and I have no other snakes with any problems currently, I would say no to IBD. However, if any more pop up dead than we have a real problem. Luckily, the dumerils are not in the ball breeder rack, they are too big, so they have 4x2's clear across the room



Thanks again!
