this is BB - she is a Jacksonii, she was sent to me from Steve McNary :) she has a twisted spine - Steve was looking for a good home for her, and I (as some know ) have always been pulled to the "special" kind of critters - well, my pity for her soon turned to fascination! I can not keep my eyes off of her, she moves in such a way, like a fiddler crab, or spider - she can get around just as well as any cham I have ever seen, and - she is quite fast when she wants to be- Steve has been great making me feel prepared not only before she got here, but as well as when I received her- I thought I would have to give her intense care- but, HA- she does not need any- as he also told me, she needs no special care really- she is so pretty, and the way she gets about- amazing :D
here is her X- ray- ( I took 4 chams for x-rays last Thur! :eek: :) ) hers was by far the most unreal - how she gets about, she can twist her pelvis in a 180 - latch on to the vine, and just go the other way- THANK YOU Steve for my very unique girl :) love her little horns - so cute !

Just another one to take all your time, then take all your love. They climb into your heart in record time.
 
She is adorable!!! I'm not surprised that she can get around well - I've got a 3-legged cat who was always tougher to catch than any other cat I've ever owned. Best of luck with BB - she reminds me of the Flip Top guy from the toothpaste commercials from years ago :D

lol - yes, those 3 leggers, just as fast ( or faster ! ) then the 4's - but look at the 2nd pic- the direction her pelvis is facing- is crazy- but she just goes on about her way - she can also flip it back under her - no one ever told her she "can't " - so she does :D
 
Cheryl, I could not have found a better home for BB then with you. I told you she was a tough little girl and could take care of herself!!! Thank You for giving her a perfect home. Out of 50 plus baby's she was the only one born with a deformity. Oops, don't tell her that as she thinks she is normal...:D:D:D
Thanks again
Steve

BTW BB stands for Broke Back

yes- LOL she is less than thrilled - the look on her face- :p that poor girl, she is so used to going to the vets now- I dont get it - she is "healthy" - but just does all this weird stuff - she was getting checked for babies - I think she is going to be a momma again ( not that I really wanted that :cool: ) but it sure as heck beats 31 slugs! she is so crabby - lol but at least she does not try to bite my hand off anymore :eek: I love my crabby vine lump :p
