    Re: Pneumonia

    oh Shannon - I'm so sorry you're sick
    I had been wondering what kept you away
    your snakes are not going to die, Shannon
    I had some really nasty, dying-preferable-to-this kind of respiratory stuff for a few winters after 9/11, and ended up so weak with weight loss that for lengthy periods I was unable to do anything. I did call on the family a little bit, to change some water bowls, and the snakes were all fine.
    I wish I could come over and help, but it is a bit far

    sorry to hear that....get better soon! the snakes will be fine....they can go for long periods without food...even the babies. missing a week won't hurt them. that has happened to me a time or 2 over the years...had to skip a feeding for a few days....never bothered the snakes

    I'm sorry to hear that !!
    Take care of yourself first Shannon!!!If you can only give food to the one who really need it.When you have such a large collection like you do you should always have a plan B ...if you know someone with a lot of reptiles,you should maybe make an arrangement ,the person can take care of your snake or at least take a look and do the minimum to be safe,someday this person will need help from your side...That will happen again for other reason ,such a hollyday for exemple.

    Hope you feel better soon .....

    Charles.
