excellent job posting that lab report about your snake. again, sorry you had to go through that. the only issue i were to have (only because i am in veterinary medicine) would be, that i dont see an actual true diagnosis of ibd. i see, where they found inclusion body cells in the samples submitted, and inclusion cells can be found in any animal, in any sample, for at anytime. now that being said, without a diagnosis of specifically Inclusion Body Disease, being the actual cause of death, it most likely wouldnt stand much ground.
now, me personally, someone that knows veterinary medicine (specifically reptile medicine), given the where the animals came from, the how and when it died, and the fact that some inclusion bodies were found and documented on a lab report, it would be and is obvious to me, that it is, boidae specific IBD. and again, my apologies that you had to deal with all this, and my utmost respect, that you submitted samples to try and weed out what demised your snake
