So I had gotten a baby pastel ball python from my cousin in last march. He was perfectly fine and I had been feeding him every week since then, somtimes going 2 weeks before I fed him but he's been growing and appeared to be fine. I've had snakes since I was eight years so I'm no newbie to taking care of them. I had the proper heat for him, water, and bedding. This past Sunday I fed him 2 small fuzzies as I normally would and he appeared to be fine up until Tuesday, which was the last time I checked on him. Then last night, I found him dead. On Sunday I had taken him out of his small cage and put him in a community cage with a ball python I've had for 3 years, and a small, about 1 foot and a half long, baby jungle carpet diamond cross who was much skinner and had been in with my larger ball python for some time. I'm positive the food was fine, because my other two snakes were also fed and are still alive.I was wondering if anyone had any answers for me as to why my snake died, because I can't for the life of me figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
