    My dear Nova. You will be missed.
    Hey guys,

    I never wanted to make a post in this section but I have too :(

    My 2012 Female Spider BP died sometime last night.

    I got her on Sept 16th and she had not eaten. I tried everything I could and usually give it just about a month before I assist feed. Today was the day I was gunna assist feed. I pulled open her tub and she was perfectly still. I knew at that moment she was gone.

    She had the spider wobble really bad too. I am not sure if that had anything to do with the death.

    Every time I tried to feed her she would resist and corkscrew and wobble.

    I should have just tried assist feeding her earlier. I am so stupid for not doing so.

    You will be missed my little mustached girl.

    That's so sad. I'm sorry :( Maybe the poor girl just wasn't meant to be.

    Thanks guys.

    I usually dont cry that much but this one was hard. Losing my first snake was really rough.

    I'm sorry about her. You weren't wrong in giving her time to change her mind before assist feeding her. Things just happen sometimes :(

    I'm SO sorry for your loss.
    I had a little guy who had refused to eat since day one. My boss at our reptile rescue force fed him once.. But he just wasn't meant to live I guess :/ He passed away not too long ago... I really miss him. He was my little baby.
    Keep your chin up :)

    I am so sorry for your loss. I personally have not lost one of my snakes but my brother lost his Retic Tiger. I was crushed because she was such a sweet heart and I really enjoyed having her around. I cried for weeks after she died and my family (non snake people) thought I was crazy. Love comes in many shapes and forms.

    Sorry to hear! :( Sounds like it wasn't meant to be. If I ever produce a spider with a bad wobble I do not intend to sell it, as to me it is a defect and not something that I should be putting on someone else shoulders. Keep your chin up.
