Well, since you have no options for necropsy (and maybe even if you did) there's not much you can do except Quarantine the DH male. Has he been with other girls? This is definately one of the major risks with breeding. One "Typhoid Mary" snake could do significant damage.


IMO, sounds like she may have just been old.
Good weight could mean low probability of parasites.
No signs of RI?

Definately SUCKS!! Hope the reat of your snakes are OK.
