bad news

[drache]

my blue striped is dead
I cannot believe it
yes, she was one of the three snakes I took to the vet last time, but she was the one I was least concerned about
her blisters were almost gone
she didn't eat on Tuesday and I handled her for a while - she seemed fine
I checked on her Wednesday, gave her fresh water, but didn't take her out
yesterday I was busy and didn't even check on her, but normally I wouldn't think of that as an issue
today I was going to offer her a fresh pinkie and found her not only dead, but already smelling bad
how could this have happened?
I just totally don't get what happened

I'm so sorry Rhea.

[CrazyHedgehog]

so sorry, how old was she...?
Snakes have a habit of hiding illness so that they do not appear to be an easy target for prey..

[adamanteus]

So sorry to hear your bad news, Rhea. As CrazyHedghog says, they hide it well.

[poissonguppy]

Sorry about losing your blue-striped. You took her to the vet and did the best you could.

[boeh]

Rhea, I'm sorry to hear about that and hope the other two are doing fine.

Sorry to hear about your loss... You did everything you could

[ScimitarX]

really sorry to hear of your loss, but you couldnt have done anything else, like other people said you did your best.

[Gijs & Sabine]

I'm sorry for your loss but don't blame yourself, you did all you could.

[Snaky]

Those sudden deaths really suck... I know a bit of that also.

Sorry for your loss. I hope that the others will be ok.
