We went to go feed the snakes and found our May '09 motley corn dead. He seemed ok. He just shedded last Thursday. It was a little ripped up which was weird for him but I figured he ripped it on his plants (not unusual for a corn). He didn't eat last week I didn't worry about it because it was the first time he's refused a meal in months. I'm so mad that I didn't realize something was wrong! Any ideas what it could have been? He died with his mouth open but there was no visible vomit or anything. He has a blue spot almost like a bruise midway down his belly. There was a little bit of blood inside his mouth but not on his bedding... He had to have died rececntly as he was still soft and limp. His cage temps are about 95 on the warm side, 80 on the cold side. Please help. Any suggestions would be great. I'm going to call my vet tomorow and find out how much a necropsy will be. I just need to know what went wrong and make sure the rest of the snakes don't have it. Sorry for the long post. I just can't believe this happened. He was one of my favorite corns.
