BAD day

[joepythons]

Well i have something to rant about so i hope everyone understands .Well today my daughter and myself went to a freinds pet store.While i was their i noticed he had two crested geckos in a tank.So i started talking to him and ended up bringing them home with us.I could not wait till we got home to share the news with the members here.Well that was all crushed when i opened the tote the pair was in one was dead .I tried to give it some air by blowing in its mouth.Well when i opened its mouth there was a small peice of wood bark in its throat area .I am sure it was the female that died,i talked to someone here and she explained how to tell the differance(the bulge size).This was a very sweet looking breeding pair .I will recommend my freind to stop using that bark crap,i am sure he will once i tell him about this loss.Thanks for letting me rant

I'm very sorry for your loss.

Are you sure it was alive when you bought it?

Well see thats the problem, he was closing when we took them out of the cage and placed them in the tote.Now that i think about it one was under the other in the cage.I thought maybe it was hiding .I never paid for them yet so i will see what we can come up with.We have a good standing freindship so i dont think he will question me on it.

I doubt we could find a 2yr old female at the price he paid for them.

To make things even worse they were perfect with no flaws.They had full tail and all toes .

I'm so sorry to hear about that Joe. My heart goes out to your poor daughter. It's so much worse to have to watch their pain.
