    I have one more suggestion...just a guess...but snakes with internal discomfort don't have any way to know what the problem is, they just lash out. You gave
    him antibiotics for a month or so...but did you think to follow them with some reptile pro-biotics (like Bene-Bac) ? Maybe he has a tummy-ache? Are his stools
    looking normal?

    Have you had his stools analyzed for anything else that might be going on? Parasites can ruin anyone's day...

    Re: Our Dumeril's has lost his mind

    If the RI is no longer an issue I personally would drop his hot spot 5 or 6 degrees and maintain humidity at 70-80 percent . I know my boy Champ does great in those conditions. You would need to decrease prey size or offering frequency as( most) Dumerils are slow metabolizing boids and in my opinion are more easily prone to obesity anyway. Well hydrated and a little cooler may help.
