Bad news about my 1.0 BRB

Z_G_Reptiles Feb 25, 2007 03:45 PM

Hi, my male BRB at 3 years old passed away for unknown reasons so far friday, i had my GF spot cleanning and doing water for my herps while i was at work and she called me with the news, if any remembers he's the one that has been off feed for about 10 weeks but was acting perfectly healthy and was just thinking it was because of breeding season, still i have no idea what happened

I am so sorry for your loss and he was very nice looking too.

It's better to have love and lost than to have never loved at all.

I bet he was one happy guy for his 3 years and I'm sure he had a terrific life.

I'm very sorry for your loss, these things do happen but that doesn't change how you feel.

I would have suggested taking the body in to find out what happened, if not cost prohibitive, but thats obviously out of the question now that he's been interred.

Good luck and let your remaining pets help fill the time.
