After a week of bathing and lots of drinking look what showed up. Her wheezing/rattling went a way as well. Docile and pretty.

Good eyes Angel. Shed this morning but I couldn't wait to snap the pic. Now for the bad news - She is apparently a "He", unless blood females are capable of displaying large and well defined fake hemipenes. I'll get the probes out here in a couple weeks and see if I can straighten it out, but I'm pretty sure it is a male. I dont really mind, but it would be nice if sellers would be a little more careful and actually know what they are selling. This animal wasn't in very good shape, loaded with mites and now it appears to be a male. Gotta love buying on the internet.
