It really sounds like IBD to me...quarantine this snake in another building if you can and use completely different instruments for feeding and so on. Any boid with neurological problems that you are unsure of the cause of need to be quarantined immediately.

My advice is :treat it like it has IBD until you know for a fact that it doesn't, and if other typical side effects of IBD show up(i.e. mouthrot, respiratory problems, body contortion, star gazing), I would euthanize the snake and ask for a refund. If you explain the situation to the seller and that that you can't take the risk of something like that in your or anyone else's collection, you are fully entitled to a refund, and last but not least, keep in contact with the breeder for updates on his own collection.
