The best guess i can come up with is some how bad food. They both ate two days prior to their death, but i also fed 2 sinaloans, 3 black rats, and two ball pythons fuzzies from the same bag of fuzzies. I guess it could just be coincidence they happened to get bad mice, but again, i've been feeding from that same bag of probably 100 mice for the last couple weeks. the mice were raised in my personal collection and weren't more than maybe 2 months in the freezer.

I keep my room at the same temp, so my cages are not heated individually and when i say the snakes were still warm, i mean, rigormortis hadn't set in and when i picked them up they were still very limp. i didn't lose power, and my high and low temps for the day were normal.



Thanks for all the input
