IBD has claimed another

well my snake has past away today. he was not good to begin with, i suspected something, and seperated him from my other bp. after i give him his shot for the day (batril), wich started to increase his lower end mobility but suddenly stoped working, i placed him in his cage, and he laid in the same spot for almost 4 hrs! normaly i wouldnt be scared, but this time he was inches from either hide, and over a 4 hr period managed to move his head 1 1/2 inches towards a hide. when i picked him up to weigh him he stuck his head straight up (90 degree angle from body), and started waving it back and forth, is this star gazing? i placed him on his back, because IBD limits the righting reflex, and continued thehead motion, i quikly weighed him, and made him as comfortable as possible knowing these would be his last hours. i called the vet, and canceled my friday trip, and scheduled an euthenization tonight, but he did not last that long, and was pronounced dead @ 3:03 PM today.

on a lighter note the guy i bought these from is bringing a male and a female, and i will meet him with my other healthy snake, sex it, and my brother will choose a matefor my Farkus
