Very terrible news

[whitesnake12]

Well my female Axanthic hasn't ate since I got her from daytona. I contacted the breeder, who will not be named, to tell him she isn't eating. I tried moving into a smaller rack,tried pinky rats hopper mice and fuzzies nothing worked. She had no intrest in any of the food iteams i showed her,so yesterday I was really worried she was sevrealy under weight 46grams and so dull in color,with loss skin folds.I assist fed her I had to push the fuzzy mouse more then half way in, for about 15 mins she just sat there and then slowly ate it within another 20mins.She seemed fine and just whent to sleep.I checked on her a few hours ago to find her dead in the rack container.I feel so bad for the poor thing,I'am so depressed.You get attched to these beautiful animals,and try the best you can to make thier lives the best,and in a blink of an eye there gone.All my snakes I intend to keep/breed ect. I grow a bond with them.I have had other snakes die,but not this young she barely got a taste of life.during the time she was alive I bet she suffer since she did not eat at such a young age.My guess of how old she was is probly 3-6weeks when I got her.Well atleast she is in a better place.

What a sad story I am sorry for your loss.

I know the feeling when they are getting very skinny like that, its not fun to watch them withering away while you feel there is nothing more you can do. I hatched out a few snakes that didn't start eating very well. I had to assist 3 of them like you did. One still is not eating on its own but it is starting to fill out now.
