I am sorry for your loss. I had an adult Guyana sent to me from a pretty well known breeder, refused to eat for me for 4 weeks and then died. She seemed plump and didn't act lethargic or anything. When I emailed the breeder, he refused to respond. I was sorry out of luck and several hundred dollars.

After her death, I found out about necropsies. If you can afford to, and if you have another unexplained death, take the body to the vet for a necropsy. That should be able to tell you cause of death, which could in turn save the rest of your collection.

Just something to consider.

All my best,
Lori
