My Abbotts passed away today.

Sad to say my 05 okeetee died today. I got him on 12/30 and he only ate one pinkie head since then. He regurged 3 times. My other 3 corns are in identical conditions and they're all doing okay. He digested a pinkie head 2 weeks ago but then regurged another last Tuesday. I started following Kathy's advice on regurges but I guess he was just too weak. Last night he was barely moving so I force fed him a pinkie head (figured maybe a miracle might happen), but when I checked him this morning he was gone. Geez, I feel awful. Poor little guy. He was so tiny compared to my others.

John

Awww, so sorry to hear about him. It is so hard to lose these little guys. But some are not supposed to live, although it really hurts when it is one of your own.

I am truly sorry for your loss.
I am sure you did everything you could. As the other poster mentioned, some are just not meant to live and no matter what we do will change it.
Good luck with the rest of your little ones
