Re: Snakes keep dying

If you never fed them anything but pinky mice I'm sure they all starved to death. I bet they don't even recognize that as food since that's so small. The meal needs to be about the size of the largest part of the snake, not just what you think will fit in their mouth.

I can't believe I missed that--pinky mice for a bp??? Those poor snakes.

I agree with you--probably starved to death and/or other issues. I would seriously reconsider getting another snake/animal until you can properly care for it (aka making sure to do tons of research in that particular animals' husbandry/care), being more financially ready, and probably looking into a breeder vs a pet store.
