Black Adder
I sold Chris a very large adult Mexican Pine a few weeks ago.
He came across as a buyer who knew wheat he wanted and was doing as he asked all the right questions and displayed a great attitude during and after the purchases.
Pine snakes are among the most hardy north american colubrids you can keep and usually pretty tough critters to kill as they do not stress easily or are fazed by humidty and temperature swings much.
Most will take your fingers off at feeding time if you let them.
That being said if there was any inherent illness present not much is going to save them.
As previous poster pointed out it is all well and good asking for necrposy etc but the financial reality is that the cost is not feasible in a lot of situations.
Not defending anybody here just stating modern day reality, not everybody has a vet to hand who even has a clue when it comes to reptiles.

IF I ever get a regurge with my guys I wait 2 weeks before attempting to refeed to let the stomach acids rebuild so they can properly digest the next meal and then it is usually 1 or 2 prey sizes reduced.
Now as these were baby snakes, 2 weeks would definitely be the longest you could wait as they have no body mass or reserves to live off while fasting.

Good luck with the remaining pine.
