Cool she's eating reliably now. How's her temperament been?

Not spectacular. I took a break from handling because I think the stress stopped her from eating. Then this was the first handling since she's been eating reliably. Maybe it will stress her out again, but its work that needs to be done, otherwise it will never get better. Anyway, yes, I was bit a few times trying to get her out. It's actually harder to avoid that with babies because they pretty much can bite you from any direction, especially in the water. But once we set on the couch, she pretty much just sat there.

Yea, the base of her tail is looking so thick. I haven't seen her in like 4 months, so I was pretty surprised how much bigger she's gotten. She's been eating small mice reliably.
