I am so very sorry to hear of your loss. Please let us know what the cause was. This is very scary stuff when they go for what seems like no reason.

:Last week my male lewisii hybrid from Dave Blair died suddenly for no appearent reason. He was full of pi$$ and vineger one day and dead the next. I had fed him on a Sunday morning and he seemed fine displaying and trying to tail wack me if I got too close. As soon as my hand was out of the cage he ran over and devoured the salad mix. The next day while I was at work my wife called me and said when she fed him he was not himself. He was laying in an unusual position on his basking rock and was very lethargic just kind of scooting away when she touched him. By the time I got home from work that day he was dead. I plan on taking him over to MSU for a necropsy. The female is great. She just got done shedding and is doing well. Not sure if I will keep her or not because I really wanted a male. If anyone knows of a male let me know.
