I have heard of someone not a million miles away from me thinks they have had IBD. It isnt definate but his 2 snakes died and had signs of IBD. He had royal pythons.

I have been franticlly checking all my animals (all boas) - I have been told to look for strange tail movements.

If you look hard enough you can see anything and Im sure that I can see 3 snakes with wierd moving tails - coiling them more than usual - am I been OTT??

What else to look for (apart from lathargy / star gazing as none are doing this)

Thanks for the advise.
