>>In September I had a total of 11 colubrids which included 8 >ratsnakes, 2 cornsnakes, and 1 milksnake. I have a custom tank >6'tall by 4' long by 2' wide in which all of them live..

May I first just say "Yikes!" This is like the poster child for why not to keep snakes together.

This should have been the time for a vet. And I don't understand why you don't think it would have been productive. You would have had a treatment plan or a way to euthanize rather than just letting them struggle and die.
