"The first dose was given by the vet tech in the lower portion of the snake's body, the vet tech said to do it there to avoid hitting hearts/lungs etc"
Injections are to be given in the first 1/3 of the body or the kidneys will filter the medicine and make it ineffective. Unfortunately the injections didn't have much of a chance because of this vet mistake.

You see...this is how you tell who the pros are. Justin got it. It's BG's understanding that giving a shot in the lower portion is harmful to the snake(good vet told him). Although BG still believes why it died, giving the shot there didn't do it any favors.
