New addition, first rescue
Picked up our first rescue yesterday. She's a beauty (will try to post pic later). She came from a home where they simply neglected her. She came in a 40 gal tank, dry skin, her hide was thin plastic with holes on the top (like a hamster hide). And the worst part is, they were telling us she's 8 years old. She looks like a 2 year old.
She's got the best temperament ever. Got her tank all fixed up, proper heat (not sure if they even had her enclosure heated at all. They claim she had a heat lamp, and when we asked where it was, they said it was being used for their beardie. I can only speculate they were sharing the heat source between to cages), gave her a couple of much needed baths, and will keep her in quarantine in this tank before we get her something size appropriate for a red tail boa.
We named her Hope.
