    Well, you can try bumping the temps up a few degrees to give her immune system a jump start and hope that can be a initial treatment. Monitor her closely and if there is more lethargy and decreased responsiveness consider a herp vet? Hope to see her improving.
    Stay in peace and not pieces.

    Much to my surprise she was still alive when I got up this morning and seems much more alert. No more signs of vomiting in the enclosure.

    That's great news EKS, I was thinking about her all night. I get the feeling she will recover and thrive. Please go easy on the future feedings bc of the regurge. I would really just go with a couple of guppies (live) to get her going. Maybe don't even begin trying to feed for about 1 week. My blue Puget female is recovering from a large output of slugs and a stillborn and is starting to look better now. I am still feeding her sparingly.

    Thanks, I'd hate to lose her. I have had her for several years and her cage mate would be lonesome with out her.

    I'm sorry to say that Big Momma died while I was at work tonight. She apparently had another major blood loss episode and passed. I'll miss her. Thanks to all of you for your advice and concern.

    So sorry to hear this! I was hoping she would make a full recovery! I just want you to know i don't think you or a vet could have done anything for this snake as i really think it was probably a busted blood vessel/aneurysm. Even if it was a parasite like a lung fluke or something the damage would have been to far at this point to treat. Just know that you gave her a nice quality happy like while she was in your care.

    Man! I am so sorry and so shocked as well. Did not think she was going to pass. I was really pulling for her. Just goes to show us how much we are not in control. Especially when it comes to life and or death. We all will miss her even though we only met her vicariously through you EKS56. My condolences go out to you.
