Just playing devil's advocate here...

Are they sure the female ate the male?

She'd be really bloated and huge if she ate a 6' snake...

Maybe he escaped?



Sorry to hear it!

I've never experienced anything like that myself.

I know other people have posted pics and stories of baby boas housed together where one ate the other, but usually the bao that was ate is regurged and the one that ate it dies.
