A valuable lesson about frozen foods

I purchased some bad fish.. I don't eat it had no clue until too late.

I fed a bunch of snakes tainted fish..

The entire Infernalis collection DEAD, one newborn dead.

Managed to save one from seizures...

pacing like a madman staring at all the others that ate from that batch of food.

Its sickening.

Keeping fingers and toes crossed for you mate, so sorry to hear of more losses.

I fed that fish to at least 40 snakes last night.

My Infernalis' were eating mice, why didn't I just feed them mice??

I thought some fish would be a treat..

this just sucks.

I threw it all in the garbage..

OMG im so sorry wayne, dont blame yourself for not feeding them mice, it would be just another day they got a treat if this didnt happen, its not your fault. I got my fingers crossed as well, i hope no more little guys get sick.

So sorry to hear that Wayne, I can't imagine how you're feeling right now.

I hope things get better for you, I really do Mate.

Man that sucks. I am so sorry to hear about your infernalis. Got my fingers cross that you don't lose anymore. I think i be turning the place you got the fish at in to the health department. And talking with a lawyer and thinking about sueing . The way i see it they cost you half your collection. I be saving any fish you may have left proof.

Wal Mart - Intended for HUMAN consumption. and since no people died, it will never fly..

So far no more deaths, But I'm not taking my eyes off the snakes for another day or so.

When I cleaned out the Infernalis cage, I found six places where the snakes puked.

2 years ago I got a batch of bad Salmon, with similar tragic results.

I guess the smart money is to just spend the dough and get a farmed trout from an all organic store.

For now I guess I'm setting my guppy tank back up.

now I just shattered the Infernalis enclosure cleaning it...I give up.

percey39 · 11-07-10, 05:31 PM

Im so sorry to hear mate, its something that should never of happened especially with fit for human consumption food.
When it rains, it pours. It sounds like your having a very bad run at the moment mate. I hope it all turns around for you in the near future.

infernalis · 11-07-10, 06:32 PM

Thanks.. the other snakes are still doing OK.

Feebo · 11-07-10, 06:36 PM

OOOOH NOOOOO!!!!

Oooooooooh mate

I`m so sorry dude

Oh what a terrible thing to happen

Chuck`s got a point Wayne, get that crap in a bag and seek legal advice. I know it`s not about money dude but you may well be able to claim damages here. Don`t feel like it`s not worth it or Walmart is too big. Get those f***ers sued. I sued a company once, you`d be surprised how easy it goes if you`re in the right and your heads in the right place. Oh man what an awful thing to have happen

Serpantstrike · 11-07-10, 06:53 PM

oh no! what a horrible bunch of happenings! at lease you have survivors though. I know people who have lost every single snake due to a bad food source. Hope things get better.

Ch^4 · 11-07-10, 10:55 PM

My sincerest condolences to you. This truly is a difficult year. I hope things get better for you.

Feebo · 11-08-10, 04:57 AM

How bad is the death tool now?

Will0W783 · 11-08-10, 09:26 AM

Oh no, Wayne...I'm so sorry to hear. You're really having a tough year. Hopefully it will get better. I would go to the store where you got the fish and complain. I don't know if it would do any good, but I'd be flipping out at the store. That's so awful..but it's not your fault...you couldn't have known.
