What the hell, Santa?
« on: December 24, 2009, 09:37:40 PM »
I get home from work and look into my cage for Coraline, the murderous murderess Pueblan Milk Snake, only to see that she is leaning on her side and not responding to me being within sight.  I tap the glass and get nothing, so I pop the lid and pull her out.  DOA.  No signs of trauma, no ooky crap coming from either end, so she looks like she just took a nap.

Thinking it might have been a bad feeder that did her in, we check all the snakes.  Everyone's okay, except that Schnappi, our BEL Texas Rat Snake, hasn't eaten his f/t mouse from last night.  I open the cage and find...nothing.  He's on the lam.  Son of a...

This sucks.

Sorry to hear about that. It is never easy to lose a snake. I have lost many in the years that I have kept them and it still hurts just the same even for the babies I have lost in clutches before. Hopefully 2010 will be a much better year for everyone. I know it has been an extremely rough year for me that I wish to never have to go through again.

I'm SO sorry to hear about your loss ;O( It always stinks when we lose one of our babies we get so attached to them and they become a part of our everyday life. That was not a very nice Christmas gift.  :crying:
