Tiny is doing well

danktat Aug 28, 2007 02:27 AM

Well, I haven't had Tiny out for quite a few weeks since she regurged an XL rat shortly after giving birth to 16 babies in May. She hasn't had any feeding problems since going thru the small meals spaced out and gradually building size back up. She is now back up to the bigger "large" rats and is holding them down well. She still is kind of "colorless" after a wierd shed shortly following the regruge (like all of the reds and browns are gone and just the black and white is left). I will give her a couple of more sheds to see if the pigment replaces itself.

She had me nervous for a while after the regurge but seems ok now......Thanks for looking.

Glad to hear she is doing well. How big is she now, can you shoot a pic with something for reference. I have heard that suri females tend to change color/darken after a litter.
Thanks,
Andy

Kenny I'm glad she is doing well cuz when you posted a few weeks back and a couple of the responses had me nervous for you and that wouldn't the way to finish off your year cuz that would put you 2 down from the start of the season although I did say a prayer for her. Best of luck to you and keep us updated

Glad to hear she's on the road back to good health! Hopefully she'll keep doing good, and gain back her awesome color.
