Well, it was the usual 2-3 days rest after feeding friday, so tonight I was all excited to hold Pelota for a bit. I go in to lift her hide up, and my first response was "whoa". She's gotten so much fatter since Friday already. Two rats, and she's packing on the grams. I took her out, and could tell she was heavier. I quickly weighed her, and she roughly weighs 240 grams. Before her first two rats, when she was still on those dinky adult mice, she was 160 grams. She seems to literally have had a growth spurt overnight, lol. I was all excited over the sudden growth, so I hooked up our horribly blurry webcam to snap a few pics. I'll post a few of the least horrible ones, lol.

A pic of one of her many "bullseyes". They get whiter and clearer as she grows. Can't wait to see what they'll turn out like when she's full grown.


Finally, a pic to show some of the girth she has put on. I don't have a before pic, so ya, take my word for it.



I sooooooo can't wait until I get that digital camera from Santa. I've missed so many good pic opportunities. And the quality of our webcam isn't cutting it at all, lol.
