This time around i had the internet and i learn so much more about proper care, temps and so much more. Back when i started information was limited to reptile magazines and advice from pet store workers.

Has for being airborne it can mutate to become airborne so yes.

I wonder why such terrible things exist lol.

No green urates. All black/brown feces with white/yellow urates. She did defecate and urinate about 2-3 times since I had her. They all seemed normal.

I agree with digging her up, putting her in the refrigerator (not the freezer), and having her necropsied. While the vet may not discover a specific cause of death, you can at least determine if it was or wasn't IBD.

If you choose not to have a necropsy done, as was said before, you and your collection are on lockdown - nothing in or out for six months at least.
