The results from the necropsy are in....

That's always a good thing I do too but sometimes (unfortunately I seen people at their worse) just glad it isn't contagious and you can move on knowing you did everything you could

Yes, im relieved/upset if thats even possible.

Did the vet suggest any kind of preventive treatment for the ones that are still alive? They were likely all exposed.

She said to just keep very clean and the others should be fine and long as not items were shared between the snakes, or they werent kept in the same tank/tub together. I told her I always wash my hands thoroughly when I switch from snake to snake during cleaning and use smell less hand sanitize. She said the others should be fine then because its not something the others can get airborn.

Very sorry that you lost even more, glad you got your answer and it wasn’t your bad or a possible virus. Sorry you and your little girl had to experience that. Thanks for following up with us. Best of luck from here out!

Thank you, im glad its not a virus, I was so worried I was gonna lose all my snakes.

I'm so sad to hear you lost more...I'm glad you got some answers from the vet, but it's still hard for your daughter to process, I'm sure.

I shudder to think how so many snakes from one place could all be so sick from this stuff...one imagines they were kept in deplorable filth &/or fed roadkill.

For what it's worth, it never occurred to me to think you were in any way responsible...I mean, you didn't have them very long.

Thank you, that does mean something to me. I try to be as responsible as possible with these snakes, and spend tons of money making sure they have everything they need. I was so worried it was something I had done, It took a lot for me to not keep checking on all my snakes until I got word back.
