Amen! teaching the next generation is the best way we can help our scaly friends.

I tried something new with Behira yesterday while feeding her.

I took the drape off before I turned the lights out.

Drapes off. Lights out. Door open. Rat offered. BAM.

She went for the rat and not the door this time. Maybe that's the ticket. She seemed surprised at first that I was offering a rat but then was like, GIVE ME!

Rather a couple second delay than smashing doors.

I'll keep everyone posted as to whether this works long term.

It's been a month since last shed and although Behira is starting to darken up a little, she hasn't gone into blue yet. I am really happy with her progression there.

She's getting big and strong but is still a puppy dog. She was really active when I took her out tonight, but then ended up falling asleep on my shoulders.

Behira just went into Blue. Should be shedding in the next 7-10 days +/-. That's still pushing the sheds out farther and farther now. Last two sheds were both 30 days. However, it's been 32 days already since last shed. Things are looking good.

As always, thank you to everyone who's supported me through Behira's shedding issues. It's great to know she's getting back and track, but the support along the way has been awesome.

Behira shed last night or today. That makes 37-38 days since last shed! YAY! She's moving quickly in the right direction and I think she is definitely out of the danger zone. I believe it's just a matter of time until she returns to a normal shed schedule and is totally healed.

I'll post pics soon.

That's great news dave

Two pics of Behira post shed.

BTW - That chair is huge! She's a good 5 1/2 feet now.
