sounds like a neuro problem?

[pyrodarknessanny]

how bad is it?
violent tremmors or a slight quiver?

has it been exposed to any extrem temp fluctuations? (high or low)
or expreianced any other stressfull situations?

Sounds like your Darwin has been exposed to a deadly RPM, you better take him to Jaguar-Carpet-Morphological-Neurological-Defect-Detection-Expert immediately!

Lucky for you though, APS is full of them.

wouldn't worry yet mate, does it show any other symtoms

 

[souldoubt]

It could be a range of things mate, brain tumours can cause head tilts a long with a number of other issues. IBD is a viral disease and can be diagnosed by a vet - and I would definitely recommend taking him to a vet before you convince yourself he has IBD

Haha, well at least you have someone to turn to.
The "biggest" breeder of them has trouble identifying them.
