Well, yesterday was a break through for us :D I was able to pick her up right out of her rubbermaid with no problems :D She ate afterwards, 5 juvie rats. Her body is getting nice and thick. I need to get more pics lol.

Just wanted to thanks for all the input from people here, she has come a long way :D Thanks again!

Pic is from a while back, but she's looking good IMHO :p
Thanks for looking!

Good to hear! :D

Just wondering why you feed 5 small items at once instead of one bigger one?

I have run out of the larger rats, so gave her these. She takes these guys more willing too, although I would rather her eat one larger item :) I have about 25 small rats right now and a bunch of pinkies, so just need to get those small rats to grow lol!

Maybe she was pissed because of the nasty paper towel she has to lay on.

Congrats on not getting tagged. :)

The paper towel is changed as needed (generally every 2-3 days, depending if she has spilled water or not, and if she pooped/peed), I snapped the picture before cleaning since she was not in a good mood at the time.
I have since put her on layers of newspaper which I find much more economical (it doesn't disinigrate like the towels lol).
