I think she looks very good. Her legs are nice and plump which means she is holding body weight nicely. She looks like she could use a fuller belly but with her well rounded limbs, I can't tell for sure about hipbones protruding, I think she looks healthy. Nice setup you have for her.

I had gotten her about 3 days before this Pic was taken, and she did not seem to be taking in much water, or many crickets, so I took some advice from OLD posts here, and I found some earthworms for her, and she LOVES the night crawlers. She ate 2 the day after this pic, and then one this am.
I looked at FroggieB's page about sexing them, and I M 90% sure it is a female, so I M also treating her as if she were Gravid.
She HAS pooped once since I got her, but there seemed to be a white thing in front of the rest of the stool, I M taking it with us to the Vet tomorrow to see if its a problem

Thanks for checking in

I'll bet she loves it, nice slope to lay in the shallows and a deeper part for the long soaks. That is a nice looking home you have created for her. Well done.

I take a couple of days off from watching the forum and someone finally posts! LOL!

Anyway, she is beautiful! I think the animals that are coming in lately have been in much better condition that a year ago. I would still take the poop to the vet to be checked for parasites even though the white (urates, kinda like birds) stuff is normal.]

Eating and pooping are very good signs too. It looks as though you are off to a good start!

Welcome to he forum, hope to see you often.
