Sorry to think he is glowing no longer and sorry that you had to go thru this again.Mimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12409455543895086283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166466078612863791.post-63414340712405244022009-09-18T21:05:09.776-05:002009-09-18T21:05:09.776-05:00((((Lolo)))))

Glo was placed in a baggy and put in the trash can. I left the baggy open so he would decompose, but when the trucks come it would look ghastly for a snake to fall out and on to the street, and if that happened, the trash guys would not pick it up.<br /><br />Last winter when I lost them all, I put them in the rats in the can without bags-it was still cold so I figured they'd fall in the truck with no problem. (The freezer went out with the electricity-that's where the rats came from). Also included was Alfred, who died earlier in the year. I stuck him in the rat freezer until I could decide what to do with him.<br /><br />Alfred was a big boy and he slid out of the trash can onto my boot-it smarted and made me giggle at the same time.<br /><br />If there had been time and a freezer that worked, I might have saved some of the bigger specimens for necropsy and or skinning. As it was, it was just too overwhelming.<br /><br />I have done necropsies, but Glo was too small to do a decent job and I didn't want to hack him up.<br /><br />After I had the big loss, I did read a bit about tanning hides, etc. and would really prefer to make art or something with the carcass of anything I can.Debra Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13455047894767524091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166466078612863791.post-35998470024552525822009-09-18T17:26:56.521-05:002009-09-18T17:26:56.521-05:00I'm singling "Glow little glow-worm now.....I'm singling "Glow little glow-worm now..." in his honor.<br /><br />Sorry Deb. really I am.<br /><br />XXXstudio lolohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15363808478293833466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166466078612863791.post-87418638047730301042009-09-18T12:41:09.693-05:002009-09-18T12:41:09.693-05:00Awww I am so sorry to hear about your little Glowo...Awww I am so sorry to hear about your little Gloworm fellow.
