Do pythons that are paralyzed in the caudal half and have URI lean towards a typical URI or are the BOTH IN FACT documented symptoms of IBD, she will not get a necropsy... but get real I have NEVER seen a python die in the way described unless it had BD as noted by the Barkers!!! BD lacks paralysis!!
>>The fact that the snake was limp the day before could indicate IBD, but the husbandry also leans toward URI. The only way anyone will know for sure is by necropsy. At any rate, IBD is not caused by husbandry conditions but can be brought out in times of stress, and the other snake is already exposed. Correct husbandry will do much to save the other snake regardless. ----- =========================================================
