General BS forum I guess anything is fair game in here. Just watch the subject matter doesn't get carried away too much.

And then there were four...

Well, it seems that the impossible/improbable has happened.

During the past few days, I've had a total of four of my snakes turn up alive. They're looking pretty rough after being on their own for five weeks, but three of the four definitely look like they'll make it.

The found snakes are :
1.1 African mole snakes (this is my adult pair, which I had considered to be irreplaceable)
1.0 Blackheaded python
0.1(?) Granite spotted python.

They're dehydrated and slightly emaciated, but are pretty spunky, save for the spotted. I've been working on getting some fluids back into them, and tomorrow will attempt feedings.

Needless to say, finding these guys has completely caught me off guard and brightened my week. Not expecting to have any snakes at this time, I actually found myself wandering into a pet store and paying retail price for individual rodents. It's an unexpected expense, but I'm happy to have it.

I'd like to thank everyone who chimed in after I lost my herp room last month. The offers of encouragement and help were greatly appreciated.
