Good for you on that rescue! That shows that you truly love animals. You are lucky that she ate after all that suffer she been through because you should learn that Balls are oportunistic feeders and they go through looong fasting periods. Put a lot of hiding places for her to feel secure and start to feed her easy in a weekly or 10 days schedule. Take care of her and post a pic for us to see her.

That's awesome!! I love it when people rescure/adopt reptiles instead of buying one. A LOT need homes!

It was a sweet story Emily, until the kid came and took it back as Angel just told us. I am sorry to hear that, you should have gotten some pics of the setup if possible, then you could have shown them to the Animal Rescues and might have a chance at keeping it:( Lets just hope he is keeping up with it and the same doesnt reoccur again

i will get some pics tho shes lovely
Man I hate your friend. No offence but he sounds like a real careless guy. You should definitely report him.

way to go dude! I have a BP also, just keep in mind that at some point it may decide to go off of feed..they tend to do this..my BP didnt eat for 8 months..I tried everything..just didnt want to eat..this was from mid Sept-mid May. 1 1/2 weeks ago it finally at a small mouse after all that time...and then just ate again yesterday! YIPPY...got her/him feeding again. Now i just gotta slowly switch back to small rats.
