    Rescued Retic

    So, I went to look at a retic that a friend of a friend has been trying to give away. I saw him two years ago, and he was ~5ft and BP girth. Fast forward to today (pic is in a 12-qt tub). He's half the girth he was, at best.

    This was him two years ago. It's scary how much smaller he is now. But he just ate for me, so fingers crossed!

    Good job taking him in Anna! I'm sure he'll be thriving in your care in no time.

    That poor baby. Good for you. I hope he bounces right back.

    He seems to be keeping his first meal down, so I think he's on the right track! I'll post his progress as he recovers.
