Try not to be to sad I think you are making the best decision. Of course I haven't seen the cham but judging by the pic I cant imagine it recovering even with a good vet. If it did recover you must think of the quality of life it would have after.

Take care
Sean

Oh that poor thing! Tears came to my eyes when I saw the horrible condition that she's in. I know it was a tough decision that you had to make, but, at least you gave her a fighting chance.

You are such a nice person to even try, I'm sure she was grateful for the time and care she received from you.

hi, i only just saaw this post as i dont come to this forum often.

it seems the people who left it at your door were trying to help it as they obviously couldnt, maybe they stole it from someone who was neglecting it, because that is a lot of neglect, probably abuse or something.

i think i speak for a large portion of ssnakess members when i say that today i was ashamed to be the same species that could do that to an animal.
That has to be one of the most horrible acts i have seen.

Respect to you for taking that creature in man, i dont know what i would have done...

I agree with Wuntu Menny, I would have put that thing down ASAP. It must be under umbareable pain and "trying" to bring it back to health is a lost cause and only putting it through more pain. Its good of you to take it in and try to bring it back but somethings are far too gone and its best they are put down.

Man would it be great to get a hold of the people who did this...

awwww thats just sick, wut kind of perosn would do something like that. But i wouldnt put it down just cause its in really bad shape...everything still has hope, i think they will pull through hope fully.

Im srry i didnt get to read all i post im so busy, going to high school and stuff crazy, but just the first few days, but im good now. Well keep us posted on how they are doing. But i got some questions, how did they end up at ur door tho....???have you sold it to a person, or seen it, cause its odd how they would just place it on your door step. Just wondering
