i was giving my dragons water as usual and i saved my favorite dragon for last and i watched her drink and then picked her up and she just went limp and water started coming out of her nose....she doesn't look good! im so so upset i saved up for months to purchase her im 16 and i got her from blood bank and he sent me the most beautiful dragon i've ever seen in person and the worst part is it's all my fault!

That is very sad that it didn't make it. I don't know why she aspirated? I will replace the dragon just give me a call. She was perfectly healthy and just dropped over dead. I know she was a stunner.

Wow, I'd like a lot more information regarding this event.

How was water being given?

How old, big, was the dragon?

Etc?

Sounds like something we all need to learn from.

great news i went at about 8 this morning to dispose of the dragon and there she was bright eyed and bushy tailed thnx so much for the help i received from bloodbank and every one i'd also like to add that this dragon was the most healthy spunky dragon i've had so far and that i recommend purchasing a dragon from blood bank because i honestly think if it had been any other dragon of mine including some i've produced it mit not have made it !
