Star Gazing
Do any of your guys star gaze alot? I know it can be one of symptoms of a RI. Is it normal if there are no signs of RI?

Re: Star Gazing
He might just be looking around. Parascoping is common.
If he is not looking around, and just staring/star gazing...I'd be worried about Inclusion Body Disease, not RI. No one likes to think about it, but it's always a worry.
Either way, if you think something is wrong: quarantine and take him to the vet.

She is just star gazing, leaning her head/neck against the side of the tub. She is not doing it anymore, but was for a while.. I will keep a close eye on her

Re: Star Gazing
I was worried about my big boy he somtimes looks like a cobra, but he has been doing this since October , so I'm guessing he just might be stretching

Re: Star Gazing
Chances are it is not IBD unless you have recently acquired a new animal without quarantining it.
You probably just caught her while she was cruising around and she froze in that position.
