Re: Ball Python Question
You mean if you put the snake down on its back, it will just stay that way and will not right itself? If so, that is not a good sign. There are all kinds of issues, not just IBD, that could cause this.
How long has your snake been doing this? Does it display any other symptoms?

Re: Ball Python Question
most likely he's hiding his head.
