So not sure what happened and our whole family (me, my husband and our 2 young sons) are very sad. We bought Mr Bo Jangles about 5 weeks ago from PetCo (they said he was captive breed - but who really knows) We had some issues the first week with feeding, but then he started eating like a champ ( 2 fuzzies a week for 3 weeks) had his first shed and it was perfect except the top of his head. His temps have been good 82-84 on the cool side and 90-93 on the warm side. I changed his cage twice in the 4 weeks we had him. Changed his water every day. But then this last week he did not want to eat, so I assumed no big deal I would just try in another couple days. We all had become very attached to this little guy

On Saturday night he was fine - no problems hung out acted completely normal!!! Woke up Sunday morning and he was dead! We have no idea why- assumption is he had some kind of parasite or something from the petstore?? He never had a BM for us to take to the vet to check.

Before we bought him we had spent a few weeks educating ourselves about BPs and have tried to do everything perfect. We are now kicking ourselves for buying from a petstore but we thought we did everything right Anyways we had all fallen in love with BPs thru Mr Bo Jangles.

So we would really like to buy our next BP thru someone we know has done everything the way you should before we take over adoption. Does anyone have any BP hatchlings for sale??? Where should we look?

Thanks for any help, Cara

RIP Mr Bo Jangles
