So up until last weekend I had a gorgeous healthy male BRB. Last sat/sun I can't remember which he regurged a meal for the first time ever. I checked on him though and he seemed fine. He seemed fine all week. When I did a check on him today he was upside down and dead. He had a blue hue to his belly in certian patches and his throat seemed VERY skinny. I have never had any probems with him b4 and he seemed fine. No respiratory issues, always ate, was ina good weight, growing steadily. I can't figure it out! I fed him FT so I doubt the mouse had anything to do with it??? If anyone has any ideas please let me know what you think as I am very concerened for the rest of my collection especially the ones that are housed in the same rack! Please help!
