Thanks for your response. Unfortunatly I was too late. I went in to the classroom the next day and got the terrible news that the snake had passed away the very night that I made this post. I wish I had been afforded the chance to save this poor creature, but I guess it wasn't ment to be. It did serve a good lesson to me in that it has made me take into consideration the commitment needed on behalf of the teacher to have pets in the classroom. I have always found time to take care of my zoo at home, but I can see how that can change once that resposibility is transfered to the classroom. Yet the importance of having those animals around is a huge factor in getting kids excited about biology. I am reassured to know that my ideas on the situation were right in line with what you had mentioned, I just didn't get the chance to act upon them I am going to bring my rosy boa into the room for my duration there so that the kids can still see how neat snakes are!
