A horror story I hope everyone can learn from

I"m sorry about your loss.

How big were these snakes (grams)? These are toxic products. It's great that you practice quarantine, this is your best defence against bringing in unwanted pathogens. There are ways for quality quarantine without pre-emptively treating for bugs.

Thanks, guys... I've been sick about it for the last two days... live and learn, I guess. Very tough lesson to learn the hard way though.

I lost the female yesterday as well.

I'm not sure on weights... the male was only a few months old, so I would guess maybe under 10 grams? He was still feeding on cut pinks. The female was quite a bit larger... again, just a guess, but I would say maybe 50-75 grams. She was eating fuzzy mice.
