Solomon I- Dead - Kinked Body

muffin_princess Mar 29, 2006 01:15 AM

I am wondering if anyone can give me some insite on why my snake looks the way it does. This afternoon he was fine and I just went down stairs to check on everyone and low and behold there was the Solomon Island Tree Boa all kinked up and dead.

Advise... help..

I have no clue as to what caused that, but I am very sorry for your loss

When a snake dies it will often contort its body into unusual shapes. Sorry for the loss.

Again, sorry for your loss, it looked like a nice snake.

For answers, a necropsy needs to be done-refridgerate and contact your vet tomorrow AM if you want more than guesses.
