Ok, you may already be thinking, this type of thing should be taken care of privately, between Kevin (amievaboy) and I. However, I think this is something that all of you need to chime in on.

This morning-- this beautiful, sunny, breezy, gorgeous Virginia morning-- I wake up and sleepily go around turning on lights for the snakes... and THIS is the sight that hits me as I turn on the hognose lights-- the female hognose, DEAD in the water dish, floating upside down!!!!!





I am CRUSHED-- this is my first dead snake-- and I've only had them a couple of months. What did I do wrong????? I'm getting all teared up and worked up... I've killed a snake, I've killed this gorgeous hognose... I run and get my camera hoping you all can shed some light for me...

And let me add right here: I don't want a refund because I think Kevin sent me a sick snake. THIS is why I want a refund:

I lift the water bowl out of the tank, camera in hand to get a close up, anything that will help you all tell me what happened-- and THIS happens:



"Hello?? What are you doing?? I was having a perfectly good soak-n-nap, with my belly up and my head hanging under the water, and you dare disturb me??"

Hello. Now... follow me on this one. I consider this to be some kind of hognose/KEVIN conspiracy to torment unsuspecting new hognose owners and frighten them out of their wits. I think I'm entitled to some kind of recompanse for metal pain and suffering, don't you???

And here she still is, having a lovely soak, right side up... for now.



Where are you Kevin??? YOU CAN'T HIDE FOR LONG!!!!! I owe you for this one buddy!!!!!! LOLOLOLOL

Erm... is this normal????????
