Thanks for the information everyone. Sorry if I came off a little rude in my last post, this is just hard for me to handle, as she was a nice woma ball. I know there are people on both sides of the winter cycle method. I have been using this to grow out my snakes with no apparent issues, possibly until now. I cut way down on feeding during the winter and it has been a couple months since she has eaten. So maybe low temps plus a meal that was a little too big may have been the culprit. I have had no respiratory infections since I have been in the hobby. This particular ball python had a "wobble" that many womas have (similar to spider), so maybe this played a role too. I will never know for sure though.

Thanks again
