she was in her water bowl last nite having a swim like she oftern does of a late evening
this morning she was dead laying under the water :(
she sometimes doses off in there so i guess she slept a little too long

Sorry to hear that M8, we lost one recently after a long fight with an RI. It really sucks. But you know it's going to happen eventually. Grab a pint and I'll grab one too and we can both toast thier memory! Cheers M8.

thanks for the kind words Craig
i have a beer in hand as i type :)

to top it all she was just starting to pull thro from 6 months of ERS, so i guess she was in a weakend state anyway

Man i'm sorry for your loss. I went through a spell about a year ago where i lost 3 prized snakes in about 2 months. Its a real heartache i know, Keep your chin up. I lost a huge gravid rosy this breeding season. I was bummed for quite a while.

[arbs&giants]

having lost a rosy myself this year i know what you are fealing
thanks for the support

i just cant get my remaining 1:1 rosys to breed this year for some reason, any ideas?

[CS_Reptiles]

I have bred numerous localities of rosy boas. Some of them breed every year and some dont. I have stuck the same female that wasn't breeding with a different male and bang. I kept trios of most of them so i could give a female a year off. Rosys are a awesome snake, they are under rated and under priced. I probably wont be breeding them anymore. I have a hard time selling the babies. I might reduce the rosy collection down to my very favorites.

[CS_Reptiles]

Heres the expecting mother i lost. It's a Whitewater, CA locale. She threw 9 babies 2 years ago, which is the largest rosy litter i have ever had.

[arbs&giants]

i agree with that
they are underrated
over here no one is breeding tham realy at the mo
