Emily, formerly known as Trey, just ate a pinkie mouse! Oh my gosh, I'm so excited....everyone in my house is in a state of shock right now! lol

I put some live hoppers by her enclosure for about an hour, Elphaba's dinner really, but served to scent the area. I did as Joanna told me and had a cup of warm water handy to re-warm the thawed pinkie, and tried dangling it with tongs for a while. No go that way.
So I gently inserted the head of the pinkie into Emily's mouth, and pulled back slightly to hook it on her teeth, just as Jamie told me to try, and ta-da! She swallowed it right down!

I could just kiss you all for the help right now!

Now the wait....will her system tolerate it? Regurge? Keel over dead? Agh!

Jeff says she'll be fine. Men!!!! lol
