i put together the progress pictures for those of you who asked for it...of course all others are welcome to enjoy

TODAY 7/2/2009

getting crafty with that tail

too hot in the sun

and a bug she didn't want so he became my model

she still closes her eyes some times, not nearly as much as she use to. the vet never found anything medically wrong with her, aside from severe dehydration (which caused SOOO many problems) but bacteria, parasites... nothing, the vet thinks she closes her eyes when she is comfortable simpley because of muscle atrophy caused from the dehydration. but when something moves around her she opens them. the muscles in her legs are getting SOOO much better, today i thought her nails were going to pierce through my skin with how strong her grip was.

oh another things thats super cute is when i first got her, her tongue didn't work so well and one eye was blind(dehyration of the orbital, all better now) so i would hand feed her crickets, as she got better i would hold them in front of her so they didn't get away. now whenever she sees my hand go in her cage, with or without a bug she instantly shoots her tongue AT my hand, usually my index finger silly girl


anyway thats annie these days, we're still working on her so i'll keep taking pictures




P.S. no eggs yet.

That is astounding! Goes to show what a little TLC can do. Keep up the good work. I think you have one grateful lil lady!

Thank you for posting this.

Wow, what an improvement. Thanks for the photos, and keep up the good work with her.

Such an improvement, but I saw nothing mentioned about the brownness of the teeth. Anything to be worried about? I hope not.

Good job!!

I will say it again, the 2 of you are going to be fine. The eyes are lots better, great job.

i was wondering about her teeth. the vet had no worries with them, all she cared about was abscesses or lesions. so i'm not sure
