Sad News

I was gonna be posting good news about bob taking his first weaner rat last night with no problems at all , but late last night before i went to bed i did my routine check on my snakes and found Jade my western Hognose on her back and bleeding though her nostrils .
To put it simply im gutted... seeing her like that was a shock as just a few hours before she was fine.
Im not really a colubrid person but i love the western hognose snakes...im going to miss her alot

Oh dang....I'm sorry to hear about that. :(

That's so awful!! I'm really sorry to hear that. I'm worrying about my hoggy at the moment as she's not eating and I love her to bits - it's awful when one of your beloved pets dies :( . Have you any idea what happened to her?

:( Oh no! That's terrible!! :hug: I'm so sorry!!

Do you think you'll be able to get a necropsy? I'm so sorry to hear that.

Yeah. i have her in the freezer atm ill be able to take her in to the vet tueesday morning to have a necropsy done.
i havnt a clue why she suddenly died like this i know a few months back she laid those unfertile eggs maybe that has something to do with it?? , she was checked over after that and there were no more eggs in her so being egg bound isnt the reason .
ill just have to wait for the necropsy on tuesday

thanks for the kind comments , you lot are great people :)

I saw you are looking for an adult male, why not pick up a small pastel right now and breed it next year?

Sorry to hear about your snake. They may not get attached to us but we just can't help but care about them.:(

So sorry to hear that.... :( :petting:
