Unhappy Goodbye Blue Sky (RIP)

Fairly bummed out. Sky passed away yesterday. Don't know why.....

Purchased him in 2008, however he was a wild caught, so I have no idea how old he was.

First snake I paid over $100 for, first snake I ever took to a vet, first snake I ever had to give oral medications to.. He will be missed sorely.

OH man that was always my favorite of your garters. I guess he has something wrong with him for a bit since he was wild caught? Whatever the case is I am sure he will be missed.

Aww, I'm so sorry to hear that D: And just yesterday I looked at the link in your signature and say him and thought,"My, what a gorgeous snake.~"

He's left this world but he'll forever remain in your heart and our memories. I hope he rests well and I'm sorry for your loss. :<

Re: Goodbye Blue Sky (RIP)

Man i am truly sorry, Sky was one of my favorite snakes of all time, i have used him as a reference point of how cool garters are many times. he will be sorely missed.
