Penelope progression thread...

Introducing Penelope, the lesser. She's about 2-2.5 years old per her prior owner, so I'm calling it 2016 for hatch year. I picked her up on 3/2/19 with Claude. She's usually pretty curious, though she was content to just chill when I took her out this weekend to check her over and snap a few pictures.

The prior owner had said they were both overdue for feeding when I picked them up, so I gave her a couple of days to settle in and offered on 3/5. She had just shed that day, but had no hesitation at all. I just fed her again tonight, f/t weanling rat, and again no hesitation. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...968471e4eb.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0eb9837068.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ca1499646f.jpg

Awww too cute! :)

I am happy that Claude and Penelope found a great home!

A shed, two successful meals, and a poop. She's settling in well, but was feeling shy tonight. I held her for about 5-10 minutes after cleaning her tub, not moving much other than to get a few pictures. Just letting her get used to me and learn that she isn't going to get hurt or eaten. She finally relaxed and explored a bit before I put her back in her tub. I'll do this for a while before I start keeping her out for longer periods. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...fd60d1279e.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...3d800c63dc.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...857d7b7471.jpg

Penelope's new paint job after a fresh she'd. I swear I think she gets prettier after each shed. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b24290b592.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b1886ea7ba.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...80673527c1.jpg
