R.I.P. little cornsnake

I bought this gal in March replacing my deceased cornsnake who got a weird bloated stomach. Well this did have a problem regurging, but then I started giving her half pinks and gradually moving up. I was all happy, but then it suddenly stopped eating. Today I was about to feed it, dangled the mouse next to the hide where I saw its head peering out and I got no reaction. when I lifted it it was dead.



I don't know what's up, I seem to have no good luck with cornsnakes. My RTB and Ball python are both doing fine and they are supposedly a tad bit "harder" to care for. The famous beginner snake is the one I have trouble with. I don't think I will get another cornsnake.

Here's pics of a it just a few minutes ago.

Wow, sucks.

thats a real shame man. sorry.

That sucks dude. I'm really sorry to hear that.

Lori got me a cute little rough green snake for my birthday a couple years ago -- it never ate and died about two weeks after she got it.

i love rough greens. i had one for about four years, and i found it dead one day. when i poked at it bugs came out of its mouth.

Yeah, I think it's best to get older snakes, because with younger ones you still have to see if they are willing to eat.

that really sucks
