These pics were taken 2 days ago. She zapped four crickets earlier today though! Ends up I wont be able to take her to school with me (grr) but ill see her in like 4 days.

The first pic should have the subtitle "I really dont like you..."

This one shows her bad/broken leg. Its gotten alot better though over the past few days. Probably going to be crooked though for the rest of her life.

Very cute little girl Melisondra! Make sure you give her plenty of calcium as you already probably know. How did she break her leg???

She is a rescue I am nursing back to health. Not sure how she broke it but prolly due to bad prior envoronment and care.
Thanks!

Amazing. Here is the cham "poster child" for MBD and that vet had no idea. Glad you blew him off.

yeah, that is pretty unbelievable. Idiot. (the vet, not you)

In your earlier post did you say she was 3 or 4 months old? She looks younger, but it may be due to all the poor care

Are your folks going to be abke to give her the repta-aid and NCg while you are gone? I would guess after your time with Aurora you have them well trained - LOL!! Tell them if they have questions they can alwasy come here

Btw, when are you finsihed with school? I think you better hurry up, girl!

Her casque looks a bit sunken and I am sure she is dehydrated from her crappy care. how is she doing with taking in water? Maybe when you get back you can give her a gentle shower or soak. it helped Luna tremendously during that last episode and now she loves her showers.

You can use store brand pedialyte or you can make your own, here is a recipe

She is taking some water, but most of her water comed from the reptiaid. Those pics were also taken about 3-4 days ago and there is some definite improvement. And my parents are the ones that swiped her from me to care for lol so I know she's in good hands.
Hehe, almost done. Only about another year and a half to go(ohpleasegod) then Ill finally graduate and be edumacated

Thanks for the advice! Ill pass it along to the parental units.

school will end...but you may find yourself wanting more! I started out at 44 going for a two-year degree and then i couldn't stop! finished my BS in Decemeber (at 50) and might go for a MS.

Give your folks a hug from me and wink from Luna for caring about their little girl (oh, and you, too!)
