Years ago I bought Leopard geckos from a breeder going out of business, and they had crypto. Thankfully I did not combine them with my other geckos. The new ones looked great for 3 months, but then went downhill fast. All of them died. I can only sympathize with you guys losing beautiful corns like that. Crypto oocysts can infect healthy snakes orally through the water, or through feces. The oocysts have a protective coating and it takes up to 20 minutes for ammonia to destroy them. I usually clean my containers with anti-bacterial soap and then spray full strength ammonia on them, leaving them for 20 minutes, then put out in the Florida sunshine to dry. Then rinse thoroughly.

Thanks for sharing your experience with us.
