I am so happy!!! I don't know if you all remember last month when I posted that I bought a very aggressive ball. It was so bad the lady gave me it for 20 bucks, she couldnt sell since it would strike at you even if you walked by the cage.
Well when I took it home I noticed it had alot of scar tissue, the one larger scar on its side is 3 inches long, the scales don't even form right there. It was obviously neglected by whomever dumped it off at the store then the store people were so intimidated by it they would only open the cage long enough to throw in a mouse.
There was also red on the scales of her belly and under her jaw. I treated it for scale rot, I'm not sure if was that or a burn to be honest, praying it would get better.
Well yesterday I noticed that her eye looked dented and scratched and I figured cool it will shed in a few days. I get home and start showing a friend her scars and the nasty lookin red on her underside only they are all gone. I took it under a light and there wasnt a red spiot on her
I am so friggin happy! Ive been worried about her and finally I can stop. I found the shed in one piece and unrolled it, 3 feet! Wow she seems so much smaller when shes rolled up in a ball.
Shes still "cranky" but considerably better. If this wasnt a wild caught... I have a suspicion it was so neglected that it may as well have been wild.
By the way I know she should be taking rats now but she refuses them. Does anyone have some tips? She also refuses anything dead so if anyone has any tips on that it would be apreciated as well...I'd hate for her to get even more scarred than she already is.
oh, and should I be feeding her small or medium rats? Ive tried the small ones so far and now my daughter has a new pet rat.
Before anyone thinks she is picky she hasnt once turned down a live mouse, but Id like to move on to bigger and better (F/T)
She FINALLY Shed
