    There is a blood test for IBD, your vet will have to overnight a sample to the lab if you want the test done.

    In the meantime keep this snake well away from any others you may have, increase his temps to 83*F low / 92*F high, up his humidity, and handle him as little as possible.

    People need to stop self diqgnosi bg their animal by reading list of symptoms online and jump the gun to IBD, IBD is not that common.

    Take your animal to a QUALIFIED HERP vet to see what he says.
