    Update on Petsmart baby

    Hi, just wanted to give a quick update. This little guy is doing great! He eats a mouse hopper every 4-5 days and has never refused a meal. He weighed 55 grams about a month ago when I brought him home and he is up to 95 grams, plumping out nicely!

    it's amazing how much difference a month can make!

    Here he is about a month ago, pointy back and skin sagging ...

    And this is today:

    his first shed was pretty bad, which I was expecting. But the eyecaps came off and just left some white scales on his back which should come off with the next shed. Hopefully since he's had a steady diet and humidity for a month now, his next shed will be better.

    Good job!
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    Please excuse the spelling in my posts. Auto-Correct is my worst enema.
