Dude!!
I couldn't believe when I saw the title of the thread....I thought there was no way this could be true. So sorry bro. I have yet to lose a critter and can only imagine what you are going through.
Let me know if there is anything I can do. :(

Re: Loss of Nero
When it was all said and done, my parents didn't want to pay the $300 necropsy bill. The vet took a look over the body and said everything appeared normal from the outside, so no burns/mites/bites/under-feeding issues, but that was all he could tell without performing a necropsy. Had I been there I woulda whipped out my debit card and paid it, but I wasn't. My parent's reasoning was that the $300 wouldn't have brought a $300 snake back from the after-life and there was little reason to believe that what caused Nero's death would travel across the house (out of quarantine zone) and effect my other herps.
For once I felt helpless in the matter. I had always been the one that took care of them, but now that I'm back as a fish in the Corps, I have to rely on my parents for the semester, and that drives me bonkers.

Lots of hugs from me too Ben. It's hard enough to lose a snake, but not having a definitive answer to why it happened makes it that much worse. :(

Re: Loss of Nero
So sorry for your loss Ben! That is a major drag :(
I don't check the blood threads very often so i have missed thid until now.
I lost my favorite snake last year and it is tough.
Maybe the $300 is better spent on a new baby?
Hang in there bro, unfortunately things like this happen with animals.
We are all pulling for you! :salute:
