I am posting this pic for Maureen. These three Hispidus chucks went to live with her a few months ago. The one on top was very emaciated. Maureen has been picking my brain about rehabbing for a few years on behalf of a few lizards that have been lucky enough to find their way to her, and she really brought this girl back! What a difference!

So, the three stooges are, from bottom to top, Sheba, Oberon, and Titania.

They are gorgeous girls! I can't believe someone would treat them badly.

THE ONE ON THE BOTTOM EATS ALLLL THE FOOD!!! IT'S DANDELION TIME...

That is Sheba. I should have named her "Wide Loan". LOL Her mate, Tut, is not pictured. He is longer than she is but not as wide. They are both very friendly and big eaters, as you guessed!

I agree, although I don't think the abuse was intentional. The former owner died of lung cancer diagnosed when he was stage 4. Nobody paid any attention to the animals, though food was thrown into their cages. Oberon, her mate and pictured here in the midst of the two girls, manhandled Titania, (on top) right out of the food dish. She looked like death warmed over when I intervened and took them home with me.
