I had a litter of normal boas in May. One of the babies was born a little premature, but held on alright.
She lacked complete development of her cranial region...she just looks like the top of her head has a little lump...i assumed that as she shed and aged that it would go away.
anyhow, she seemed to be doing fine, she shed and has been eating.
Just recently shes been showing neurolgoical distress problems, corking her head back, moving in weird directions sporadically, turning upside down without being able to right her self up, bitging herself....
I don't think she's going to make it. My question is, why did this happen if she seemed to be doing fine. One othe thing to note is that although she's had like 8 meals, she hasn't grown, her front end looks loose and thin, and she is very lethargic.
Is this normal with premies or do i have a whole other problem?
