    ok to post pics of a recently deceased snake, for help determining cause of death?
    One of my beloved snakes has died, and I'm not sure why. Will it be ok to post pics of him, not long after he passed, in a post to see if anyone can help determine the possible cause of death?

    Ok. I appreciate it, but I'm hoping this could be an exception, since there are visible changes in color, scale condition, and distinctive clouding of his eyes (which I was told was not a retained eyecap), upon his death, which I've recorded in four pictures. I would also like to describe what happened approaching his death. I'd like to take a shot and see if anyone might offer some idea of what could've happened. So I'm wondering if perhaps an admin might let me know if it would be allowed. Is this not the right forum to post this question?

    I appreciate it. I was pretty stunned when I found him dead!

    Yes, I just posted in the general bp forum. Didn't realize two of the pics were a bit blurry though... Hope they're clear enough
