    My first boa is now dead.

    I cant believe it. He was a dwarf nic and he was still to small to be in my 4X2 boa cage. Coming home from work I saw him out of his cage Which was a 42 quart tub with a locked secured lid. He got out and and tried to get back. On his entry back in right behind his head he got stuck and passed away.

    I feel like alot of it is my fault. I feel like I could have prevented it if I would have put him in my damn rack in a 32. He was my first boa. My second snake that I ever purchased. I feel like I got caught up in all of my morphs and didn't give him en ought attention and now hes gone for good. Be good to your normals their not so normal. Good bye Voldy.

    Oh jeez- I am so sorry that this has happened to your snake. Major giant drag; to say the least.
