    And okay. Now if I thaw the mouse and she doesn't eat it, would it be okay to re-freeze it once again. Then throw it after after the second thaw is not eaten? Because I was told by the lady I got her it would be okay to freeze it again if she didn't eat it.

    Nope, once unfrozen, if it isn't eatten you must throw it out unfortunatly, such a waste of food lol, snakes and thier wasting habits

    I've always read that you can refreeze one time and then the 2nd time it's thawed out if it isn't eaten you have to throw it away. I've had to do this a couple of times and had no problem.

    I've refrozen food all the time and my snakes have no trouble eating it eventually.

    Okay cool. Glad other people have done the whole freeze, thaw, re-freeze thing. I don't plan on re-freezing it more then once. I wouldn't want to keep thawing and re-freezing. I'm sure it'll start going down hill after a few thaws and re-freezes.

    Also, here's the photo of the girl! =] It looks way better then what it was (to me at least).

    I know it looks a little funky, but thats due to the cream I have to put on her eye.

    Of course. She has to go for another shot monday, but thats it. I also have to put that cream on her eye. But that will be the only time's she'd be bugged. I'd rater not bother her while she's in shed, but I gotta treat that eye. Can't wait till after the shed to see how it looks. I have my fingers crossed for the best, but I know it can take a few more sheds until it looks just about completely healed. I'll throw up another photo of her eye after the shed.

    It cost alot to move into an apartment with fees and all, why would you risk getting kicked out to have to then look for another place to live?

    I just keep it general. "securely caged reptiles" Sounds a lot better then 5 pythons and a boa!

    Okay. So just as I went into my room to put away my sewing machine, BAM there was my girl in the middle of shedding. =] So I walked out slowly and let her be. When I walked back in she was in the middle of going to the bathroom. XD So once again, I left to let her be alone. After a minute or so I went back in and took her out to check her eye and this is what I saw

    I tried to get another few, but I didn't want to handel her to much just after a shed. I applied some of the medical goo the vet gave me and put her back. I know it'll take a few more sheds before it looks almost like nothing happened, but it seems to me like her eye might be fine, then again I am no expert or vet. She was trying to get away in the middle of the photo so I'm sure by her trying to pull away it pulled on her skin a tad, and she seemed to of been looking away from the camera. lol. Anyways, just wanted to post that. I'm going to attempt to feed her the f/t tomorrow. I'm sure she's wicked hungry after missing a meal, and her shedding. Anyways, tell me what you all think of the eye. I'll try and get another one tomorrow before I feed her, and do a over head shot.
