    PS
    Physically he seems fine. Tries to bite....
    What I am most worried about is the unseen

    I was being charitable when I said I didn't understand your question...what I meant was that it was incoherent & your post lacked information.

    I have plenty of experience and I DID answer your question, with what limited info you provided. While "physically" he may seem "fine" to you, that may NOT be
    the case...a snake that tries to bite is (a) perfectly normal & defending himself by instinct, but may also be (b) injured & in PAIN from the fall, especially if he wasn't
    biting before.

    If you are "worried about...the unseen" you should be taking him to a proper herp vet, because this is a forum, where we can only try to help diagnose but in any
    case cannot TREAT your snake, and we only have the info you provide, not even SEEING the snake, much less in REAL life.

    IBD is NOT caused by falling...falling "may" be caused by IBD. Big difference.
