What types of snakes don't get IBD?

IBD has only been found in Boas and in rare cases Burmese Pythons. Snakes outside of those families have not been found so far to have IBD. Mites have been known to transfer it between host but snakes such as King snakes and Corn snakes have not been found to contract it. If you are considering a species for a pet that is not susceptible to IBD I recommend Corn Snakes. If you would still be interested in Pythons then Ball Pythons and Kenyan Sand Boas are good starts. Both are hardy and neither have had any known occurrence of IBD

Depends upon the species and locality. Pythons and boas that inhabit areas around water (such as water pythons, reticulated pythons, green anacondas, etc.), will often eat anything from rodents to small mammals (and big ones, in the cases of reticulated pythons and anacondas) to fish and crocodiles!
