If it's any consolation, you did the right thing taking your snake to the vet (ab's are necessary with stomatitis), and the death was pretty much out of your hands.



As you mentioned, if anything could have been learned from this, it is that record keeping sure helps down the road. Necropsies are also priceless when dealing with pet animals and unexpected deaths.
