my brazilian rainbow boa, chaos was my babygirl, and she died yesterday because my stupidity. the tempitures spiked in my area the past 3 days. of course making the reptile room a little warmer then normal. for somereason the thermostat didnt turn off yesterday. i checked on them in the morning and then at night. i should have checked on them more yesterday. when i pulled her out she was still breating, but compleatly dehydrated. she was the only one i lost, every one else was just out of water. i cought it just intime for everyone else. but not chaos. i loved her with all my heart. ive had reptiles for longer then i can remember, but she was the first that was 100% mine, that i did everything for. i was helped with everyone that came before her. she died in my lap last night as i was calling every single animal hospital. but of course no one had an exotic vet on duty, or even on call. none of them would even consider looking at her. but it didnt matter because she died as i was making the phone calls. she died in my lap. i cant stop beating my self up for this. whats worse is i went on vacation last week, so i didnt even get to see her last week alive. my gf has been the one helping me through the past 2 days. chaos really did mean the world to me, she still does. she was like a "dog" to me. she really did kno me, or atleast my sent. when i would come into the room, she knew it was me, because she would come out. but if any one else went in, she would hide(i can only think that this is because of the theory that snakes could possably learn the sents of their owners). last night may have been one of the worst nights of my life. she was soooo great. i named her chaos beacuse i was holding her the very first day i had her, and she slitherd up my chest, looked at me and bit me right on the lips. i thought of it more as a love bite, or even a kiss. that was the first and last time she ever bit. not only that, she never snapped, hissed, pulled back, or made a lunge. she was the only one i would trust with kids. normaly i didnt trust any of the snakes, because they were snakes. but i trusted her. i was even able to hand feed her with out fear(i kno shes a snake, and thats stupid for me to do. if i would have got bit, i would have blamed my self, and not her) but she was soo gental about it. i just cant stress how good she was. she was the 110% perfict pet snake. shes going to be cremated this week, and put in an angle urn looking over her picture. ill post a pic of it once i get her back. but heres some pics of her from the past couple years.

Oh Nevin... I am so very sorry you lost your beautiful girl, Chaos. She was a beautiful Boa. I know you have a huge hole in your heart right now, and if probably feels like something's got a hold of you guts and won't let go. I truly know how that feels, and you have my deepest condolences.

Thank you for sharing your grief with us, and especially for the beautiful tribute to your baby girl.

Nevin I am so sorry for your loss. Chaos was a lovely boa. I pray that your grief passes quickly, and that your memories last a lifetime.

As for the picture, you should use the first one; the one of you and Chaos together. Both of you look very happy together, and that's a great way to remember her.

Nevin I am very sorry for your loss. Chaos was very beautiful. I agree the first picture is the best for the urn frame. She sounds like the perfect snake.
P.S I see the smile:).

Oh Nevin, I am so sorry for your loss! Chaos was a awesome snake and you were very good to her. Don't beat yourself up over what happened. It wasn't your fault and you did check on them. Sometimes things like this happens and I know just how you feel, I had some of my ball babies die just like that a couple of years ago and it nearly killed me because I loved each and everyone of them. Just know that she will forever be in your heart. Keep those good memories of her with you always. I too love the first picture of you and her. You both look happy. My next pick is of her in the skull. Thats pretty cool too. You hang in there buddy! RIP Chaos!!! Deb

That shot of her chillin' at the top of the wall is real nice. Sounds like it speaks to her demeanor too. I'm sorry you had to lose her this way. For the record, she may come back to you in a future snake. Call me weird if you want, but I do believe that when the love is that strong pets do find a way to get back to you & let you know they are alright whereever they've ended up on the otherside. My dad has a dog right now that I'm 100% positive is really his last dog.
