Sorry for your loss 3skulls, she was a beautiful animal. I hope that you can find out some more information on why, as not knowing can heavily weigh on you.

RIP Victoria / Necropsy Photos
Thanks everyone.
She is the first snake I have ever lost (in the 20+ years of keeping snakes) that I feel it could have been something I overlooked. Did I over stress her from breeding? I just feel guilty because I don't know what it was.
The male is still doing well. He is in a shed cycle right now. Still eating and putting on weight.

Might be worth it to bring the male in for a quick check-up.
When you freeze cells they burst, which is why they can't do the tissue culture. It wouldn't be accurate.
Sorry that happened.

RIP Victoria / Necropsy Photos
We called to see how much a full blood work up would be on him. I'm putting money aside now.
We did talk to one of the best Herp Vets in the area over the phone. She said without her having any other signs or symptoms, she doesn't think it was anything like IBD.
Between that Vet and the head of the Vet tech program at the local Zoo. They both lean to her having some type of complication due to breeding. Stress and or her eggs dying and becoming septic.
If we learn anything else, I will be sure to pass it along.

When my first snake died, there was also a green-ish discolouration around the same area. It was visible through the scales, as well. He was a sick young snake, though, when we got him, and just didn't make it.
I'm not sure what it was, we didn't get a necropsy done.
Sorry for your loss.
Reach for the stars, and if you don't grab them at least you'll fall on top of the world.

No pooling of blood anywhere. That's the best pic I got of one of the lumps. When cut open, it was a very gross looking brown mush.
I'm sorry I didn't get better photos.
The only pooling was in the gall bladder section. The Green color. I'm not even sure if that's from the gall bladder or not. It was just in that area.
We do have a digital scope at home. I think it's 80-800x. Is there anything an untrained eye can look for?
I was also thinking of going back and opening up the digestive track to look for any parasites.
Does anything jump out from the pics at all?
Thanks for the help.

Were there issues with her breeding/eggs?
