I'm guessing it was over heating? Thermostats fail?

I must admit that's my biggest worry.

I nearly lost a few snakes at the donny show, sun beating down raised some of the snakes to 103.f (in minutes).

No idea what I'd do if I was you Pete, I couldn't even begin to imagine how you feel. Sad

Wow Peter, that really is a body blow, you must be devastated - I'm so sorry for you. I'm presuming this was overheating - always a risk with small enclosures and a potentially powerful heat source. You're not the first this has happened to.

If you're in this for the joy of reptiles rather than the money, you'll get back off the floor. I hope you do.

Regards, Nick

That is a nightmare scenario for me, to suddenly lose (almost) all my animals. What can I say, I hope you get over this. Best of luck.
