on the otherside...a horrible start

well, the other night i was getting already toset up our BRB in a new tank with misting system and all that good stuff, i was going to feed her ( i bag feed) and then put her in her new enclosure, so when i went to open the tank to retrieve her, there she was belly up, my first response was i yelled NOOOOO! and my girlfreind came running into the reptile room from cleaning the rodent breeders, and i had to break the news to her that her snake had died, i really have no idea why or what caused her to perish but, it is what it is you know. but i wanted to say thanks for answering my question when i had them and keep up the good work in here
