November Update on Grace

Awesome job, Tim! Grace really lives up to her name!!!!

Steve

Thanks Melissa, Pamela, Mitch, Dusty Doris, Kim, Jo and Alice. I really appreciate the comments and support. I can say that as many of you have stated, I can only take a small portion of the credit, because I only worked for about 30 minutes stitching her up. However, Grace has worked 24 hours a day to pull through. I still get a glow on my face everytime I look at her.

Tim, she looks amazing! She's always been a beautiful spider, and her story made her even more beautiful! It's so good to hear what a miracle she truly is!

Ive been keeping up on Graces story..Its so wonderful to see that what looked like doom for an animal has ended with a wonderful life ahead.. Maybe some would have given up. but the compassion and determination to give her the chance at life is just so awesome . If only more people in this world would feel just a small portion of what we (animal people ) feel .The horrid abuse and neglect of animals would be diminished. The first snake I aquired was from a local pet shop. Its a corn snake but he was in a little cricket container..sand to lay on..no hide..and an empty water dish. the guy said he hatched oct-nov 05 this was march 06. Anyone could see the little guy needed help. after a month I weighed him in at 16 grams. now 15 months later hes up over 400 grams. They joy to see an animal flourish is wonderful.. Keep up the good work and PLEASE keep us updated on Grace.. I think alot of people here will become her ""Proud Aunts and Uncles" to see her first clutch hatch.

Tim you're my hero, this story is such an inspiration :gj:

Did you apply for vet school yet :D ;)

Unreal Tim.......................:salute:

Agreed, you did a great job, and she looks amazing! One of the best spiders Ive ever seen!:D:D:D

Thanks Again everybody for following our little miracle.

Deborah, I have not applied yet. Still trying to raise the funds. LOL.

I came to the forum after you initially posted about Grace, but I got hooked and have been waiting for updates! Looks like she made a great recovery! That's great you were able to save her!

I haven't been around much lately, but this was the first string of threads that I've hit....


Oh waaaaaaaaay to go to you guys!! She's doing so fantastic, and growing like she should. Yaaaaaaaaay!!! :banana: :pinkele: :gj: :thumbsup:

That first pic is just craaaaaazy---definitely showing that even if she didn't exhibit it before, like she has for months, Grace has the 'tude to live and thrive. :D :D :D It looks like she's getting ready to take a hit at you. How AWESOME!!

Her belly is just doing so wonderfully, but reading....ARE you planning on breeding her? She's a gorgeous spider, but do you think her wound and prolapse could be inheritable???????

I'm sure there are umpteens of members here who would give her a home, but MAN! what a beautiful snake, and what a wonderful pair of breeders who would take the time to care for such a fragile, special baby!!!!

Hugs to you for your successful meals and poo. Best wishes for many, many MORE poos and grams of growth to come!!!!
