    central nerve problem
    hello.
    I am new.
    My phyton has some kind of disease, he was on enroxill injections for a week but not much better changes.

    he is unable to roll over from his back, he goes backwards, when he goes forward his head is turned 180 degrees- back...

    it could not be IBD, because I am from Slovenia (Europe) where we have no IBD. snake is from Slovenia- home breed.

    can anyone have a clue what it could be?

    there on you tube is film of him:tears::tears:

    IBD is a contagious disease, and frankly there are no guarantees that it isn't IBD, that's the sad part of IBD.

    I'm sorry, I can't see the video at work, so I can't see what's happening.

    How long have you had him and how long has he been showing these neurological signs?

    I'm curious also.. When did this start? It looks like the muscles on that side of the neck are contracted for some reason. It could be degenerative, could be neurological..

    Has he come into contact with anything out of the ordinary? Had he been feeding properly/regularly? Was he normal when hatched?

    Have you attempted to feed him since this happened? Also, where do you get his food from?

    Your best bet is a vet visit to get some X-rays and see whats going on
