Well, I lost a female ball python. Unfortunately it was Annebelle, my het albino from 8Ball Pythons. She got mouth rot, despite being kept on newspaper. Treating her with a mixture of peroxide didn't work, so she went to the vet. Even with antibiotics the mouth rot got worse, and her face swelled horribly, and today one eye was rupured, so we put her to sleep. She was suffering at this point even with pain medicines(I didn't know you had pain meds for snakes).
Sigh. I really feel bad, and the vet will be necropsieing to see if there were any other issues.
