Re: Help my red tail boa got too hot and is not moving
Truth is, I have no clue how hot they actually got. Was late evening when I got home and was still 98F. I had one window unit running when I left. Was off with the breaker tripped and the plug had to be replaced because it melted. This was a heck of a blow to both confidence in my ability to keep the house cool enough. I replaced the plug and added a window unit to the snake room. The heat sources did not fail. They were all regulated. The temps just got to hot from the heat of the day.
She was loved and will be missed. She was a rescue and we had not idea on her age. We guessed that with her being a little over 5' that she was around 5-6 years old. She could have been much older than that though. We have no clue. I had the thought that they might have issues this summer of getting to hot but put it back in my mind because of the air-conditioner being on. Lucy, like all my pets has left us with an empty enclosure and hole in our hearts.
I am so grateful all the other snakes and lizards are ok. I have checked on them all several times after finding Lucy. All the temps are returned to normal and will be left alone a couple of days to get over the stress.
Should I feed them this week? Thursday is feeding day.
