Default Sleep Well Lil girl

I hoped i wouldnt have to post in this bit

One of my non feeding corns passed away today in my hand, she weighed just 3 grams when i took her on in July a couple of days ago i noticed that she seemed to have lost all her movement from her middle down to her tail.... I knew she wasnt herself about an hour ago so i took her out her tub and she died within 10 minutes...

I cant believe how much this hurts, i feel like I have let her down

Sleep well Freya, im sorry I couldnt save you.

This was her last week (had to add this as someone just pm'd me saying i was sick for posting a pic of a dead snake!)

Awww! R.I.P tiny corn!
Don't feel you've let her down, she would've been happy that you cared for her so much.

I'm so sorry hunny, as you know I've inherated 3 snakes from a friend but the Royal was poorly for a little while and I was beside myself - and I am really not as dedicated to the reptile cause as you guys. *HUGE HUGS" I hope your significant other is being supportive x x
