Hey Marty,
Yes it does sound nuerological, as in a case of IBD, which is an incurable disease that there is very littleknown about, other than it kills.

The only 100% way to know for sure is to get a good reptile vet to do a necropsy on it.
There is no test for IBD at this time except for necropsy...


With all the things you said, such as the regurges and the uncontrollable movements, it sounds like it to me.

If you have any other herps in your house, get them into a separate room from where the other one was.
Don't use its cage for a new herp untill you can sanatize it completely. Everything, all the fixtures, water bowl, lamps etc, EVERYTHING!

The transmission of IBD is unknown also, so clean all.
I also recommend NOT getting another one from that source untill you get results back from the necropsy, just in case.

Welcome to Redtail, just wish it could have been on a happier note.....
