very sick ball python

serpentz Jun 07, 2009 08:25 PM

He's about 10 months old. Over the past several weeks, he hasn't been interested in feeding. Today I noticed that he is extremely ill. The back half of his body has fluid filled bumps. They are reddish in color. The extra fluid makes the back half of his body feel soft and bloated. I am very concerned. I plan on contacting a herpetologist tomorrow.
