When I saw that he wasn't starting to eat, I pulled him and placed him in a quarantine room I setup.

Jon, What I'm about to say may sting, or out right hurt, I have only seen 1 snake in my life that had IBD, So I'm not an expert on this. You need to take that Spider to have it tested....No If Ands or Buts....And if he/she comes back possitive Well, It's the eternal sleep, and this may go for the rest of your collection also, With this diease there is no remission or meds the only cure is the long sleep. I do feel your pain, I truly do. [b]
This is why proper Quarantine,And Hygene is so important.[/B]

I bought the snake on August 28 and he was very under-weight with his skin being loose.
