Very sorry to hear that. :( :hug:
Re: moarning the loss....:(
thanks JLC.....my opinion on this is i think she was way too over stressed.. although i told him how to take care of BP and made him read a bunch of articles, he handled her way too often in the 1st week he got her....
Re: moarning the loss....:(
So sorry to hear that ad!:( Reading through the current post today it seems there have been quite a fee losses. How long had your friend had Mocha? Hopefully this was a lesson learnedfor your friend and will heed your advise in the furture. Again sorry to hear this.
Re: moarning the loss....:(
he had mocha for 2 weeks and she seemed perfectly hapy and healthy....her temps were good no scars nothin..... ya hes getting another one pretty soon but what worries me is that hes done things liek this in the past and never learns from it....and what was really ironic/akward was that i was more sad about it than he was.....he was just like " ya....but im getting another one next week". but i guess you cant change someones mind about these things.... :(
Re: moarning the loss....:(
Well good luck...
"in a perfect world only fit people would be able to own pets or have children"
:D Just my thoughts.
Re: moarning the loss....:(
So sorry to hear about the loss:( I also have seen alot of threads about people losing there snakes...Kind of weird
Re: moarning the loss....:(
hmmm... does stress cause seizures?
Re: moarning the loss....:(
dont think so :D but i wasnt there....all he told me was when he came back from the bathroom she was moving rapidly and swinging her tail and shaking...? her stomach was on top too if that helps.....
he wants a pastel now....all i told him was before you buy anything that is alive...you might want to research on it...
Re: moarning the loss....:(
I'd recommend that your friend take the snake to a vet to have a necropsy done, tested for IBD, parasites etc...
Ball Pythons should "just die"...something is going on there. I'd definitely find out what happened to it before he/she gets a new one...
Disinfect everything!
