Well I went to a pet store today ........was browsing around, happened to look at the little baby ball pythons....
One was laying with a climbing stick laying over his middle, his middle was all twisted, it looked like he had been trying to go poop, but it had taken a while and it (the poop) was all dried up, and looked liked his insides were coming out! I went and got a lovely associate and asked him to turn the snake on his back real quick.....when he touched the snake it opened it's mouth as to bite him, but just went the way he was pushed....and only turned his head back to where his "chin" was on the ground. I asked the KID if it could be IBD.......he said "sure.....if I knew what it was." I was ALMOST speechless! But I told him......."you need to get this snake to a vet, because if it has IBD then your other pythons have it to. get all your snakes checked (I don't know if it can cross to amphibans and lizards!), but they have corn snakes above them and I'm sure they don't practice good hygiene methods. I looked in the tank and seen 2 other baby BP's they were having a tough shed.....all flakey, and such.....humidity was bad, you could tell that, but they had a full bowl of water. PLUS they had mites!!!! HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!! THE PEOPLE are lucky me and my partner just left when we did. Or we would have taken those people out!!!!! Just wanted to rant, I know there is nothing I can do.......just wanted to rant........
