    Roe progression thread!
    Hey! I just wanted share how Roe -That's the name I stuck with :D- is doing! She is a BCI I picked up last month. She is doing amazing, and just shed all in one piece yesterday! She was 61g when we brought her home, and as of yesterday, she is 75g. I've never posted a progression thread, I'm not too sure what to mention lol. She is eating 1 mouse hopper every 10 days, and she eats tomorrow. I would like to get her eating every Thursday, though, because that's when my bps eat and it'd just be convenient :rolleyes: Her name is Rojo, due to her red tail, but I just call her Roe. Pictures are coming!

    that's a beautiful name, i love it!!!

    share anything you want in her progression thread, including the bad stuff! it can't always be sunshine and unicorn farts, and i feel it's important to share the struggles just as much as the triumphs (tho i hope you have very few struggles!)

    can't wait for pics!!!

    Heeyyyy I forgot about her progression thread! I should have been posting on here instead of the other thread about her burrowing :rolleyes: I'll update you:

    4 weeks ago, Roe was eating like a monster! She took every mouse I offered. It was great!
    3 weeks ago, Roe didn't eat. I was worried! She had just shed recently, and it couldn't be that. I was scared!
    2 weeks ago, YAY! Roe ate. But I had to leave it in her tank overnight. (I switched to feeding in tank last week)
    1 week ago, nothing. But... it's okay! She shed! All in one piece too! So I wasn't worried.

    I feed her every Thursday. Now she eats on in two days. She hasn't lost any weight (75g). Fingers crossed!


    Also, 2-3 weeks ago I did some stuff to her tank. I gave her a smaller hide, covered the sides, gave another lamp with dimmer on the cool side, and added spag moss. I'll get some pics when I get home. Thanks again!

    Great she is eating for you and gaining weight!

    I am sure you are relieved.

    I am the only with a BCI who wraps their F/T prey, seemingly, forever? Behira will wrap for a long time, then eat like a pig. Seriously though, it's dead already honey!

    My BP will wrap for a little bit, if she even strikes, but start eating a lot faster. My corn, if he strikes and wraps, which he often does, will wait about a minute and then just want to chow down!

    Just an observation.

    Good luck with Roe - BCI's rock!
