Not knowing is the worst...

I woke up this morning and one of my bp's was dead...

...I am sad, of course, but the frustrating part is I can't determine why.

He had clean water, appropriate temp's, nice hides, ate well, never missed a meal, etc, etc.

The only thing I can attribute it to is if one has enough bp's there will be a % that will die of unknown or natural causes.

I am totally baffled.

Has anyone else had a bp die for no apparent reason?

Thanks,
Brandon

Wouldn't you know it, on the day one of my bp's dies, another goes into ovulation.

Cycle of life. Wow.

Brandon

Sorry to hear that. It happened to me once as well, and it is just head scratching.

Same reason we wake up to dead rodents, etc. I guess.

Congrats on Ovu but so sorry to hear about the loss as well.

So sorry to hear of your loss:(

No matter what you cant control something like nature...though try as you may. I feel for you man, i'm gonna hate it if one of my snakes passes...cant even stand the thought

oh man that really sucks :(, you are on the roller coaster of emotion right now with the other ovulating, well congrats on that at least.

sorry to hear man I had one do the same thing. I had rescue the 2 and kept them together ( way before I had net access). I found the home for the one and a month later I find the one dead. I was handling him and went to the store for mom came back to this nasty smell and checked all the snakes and it was dead, never knew why just up and died.

:tears::please:

So sorry for your loss but congratulations on the ovulation.

Thats a bummer. Sorry to hear that. I know what you're going through. Same thing happened to me a few years back. True with the cycle of life, good luck.

sorry to hear that, i feel your pain
