1 Month ago i procured my first Children's Python. A beautiful 1 year old. After a few weeks settling in she finally fed for me Sunday last week. A thawed Pinkie mouse purchased from a pet store.
Yesterday (Thursday) i found her dead in her enclosure. To say that i am terribly upset is an understatement.
I have read and read and read as much literature as i could get my hands on regarding the keeping of this beautiful animal. I am now searching for a reason as to why this may have happened and if anyone else has experienced the same sort of thing.
She was in a timber 4 foot enclosure. Glass sliding front facing doors.
Temperature 30 degrees warm and approx 26 degrees cool end.
Humidity was always between 55% and 65%.
All items in the enclosure were washed thoroughly before putting in. Substrate was Aspen snake bedding.
I can't stop thinking that i have done something wrong and obviously i have. If you feel like having a crack at me don't bother i have been kicking my own butt all night. Any advice welcomed
