update on super-skinny RTB (pics)

begunwithaletter Oct 04, 2006 11:21 AM

This girl was surrendered to me about two months ago, after spending the better part of a week in a sterilite storage bin with another adult RTB. No water, no heat, no food, nothing. She's dog-tame and is taking small rabbits/jumbo rats weekly, and has put on some signifigant weight since she arrived. She's shed as well, and she 'blushes' a lot, especially on her face. She's got a lot of salmon-pink splotches on her sides and belly, as well. Her face isn't pretty, but she's my favorite rescue, out of 16 reptiles.
