    Re: Ball Python died....

    Hi,

    I hate to be the one to mention it but there are a couple of possible reasons for neurological symptoms like those you describe.

    IBD is the most commonly mentioned cause but I strongly suspect it is not one of the most common causes.

    It's natural (or at least expected ) in the spider morph.

    It's a known symptom of overheating.

    It can be caused by parasites. Some kind of nematode if memory serves.

    It can also be caused by the chemicals used to treat for mites.
