I have a yearling Ball Python that I have had since December. He was a Petsmart rescue (I know, I know). He has always been a great eater, and very very active. We feed him one fuzzy every seven days. Terrarium is 80*, Humidity is around 60%.
After his last feeding, on Wednesday, he has become very *very* lethargic, a HUGE swing from his normal active self. He still has tone when I pick him up, he isn't limp. But he has been staying in just one spot in his terrarium for two full days. When he tries to move, it seems like he will pick his head up, it'll shake a bit, and he will go back to his old position, almost like he is 'dizzy'. No signs of RI, no bubbles, popping sound, etc. No signs of mites... I just can't figure out what is wrong with him, and it's really worrying me. He has only shed once since I have had him, it was about 4 weeks after I got him. He has BM's pretty regularly...
Any Ideas, ladies and gentlemen?
