Sad news my new corn mojo has had to go back to the pet shop, its been 3 weeks since i got him and in that time he has not had one feed.SO its been about 4 weeks in all,i have tried allways to get him to eat with no luck, but in the last week he seemed to have got very weak,not moveing at all.So i phoned the shop and told them everthing to which they said i should take him back so they could see if they could get him to feed, this was 2 days ago and i went back today and bad news they said that he had died aday after . So now i dont no if i should get another one i dont want to feel like its ok mojo has gone i can just get another one, i will give it afew days to think about it, and if i do get another one i will let you guys no, thanks. |

| So sorry muffin, must be horrible to go through. Agree with Lee, it would be a shame to loose your love of corns but try an older one that you have proof is a good feeder - will help build your confidence again and will also be so different to Mojo that it wont be seen as a replacement. xxx |

| aw so sorry- it is traumatic to lose any sort of pet give yourself time to mull things over, and then, if you want to, start looking for a completely different looking snake. |

rip mojo
dont beat urself up about it..its not your fault..its likely he was already ill when you got him..if you do decide to get another corn like others have suggested get an older one with an established feeding pattern.. also it might help to get a different morph so you arent seeing mojo all the time.. |

He had a snow before that, from recollection it had a weird dark mark inside it that didn't move. Died shortly afterwards, possible parasite or something I think it was. |
