    Cool Spartacus The Magnificent! My rescued bp

    I rescued Spartacus from where I work (petsmart) he had a prolapse and basically, had a bunch of ignorant people deciding that a prolapse is because he got fed a hopper and not a pinky, though after talking to an exotic vet and talking to some of you on here, it seemed its leaned more towards dehydration issues. (which makes sense, considering the humidity in his tank was only 20%). I was out of town when most of this was happening, and after I got back I had to fallow "procedures" and couldnt feed this poor guy anything other than a pinky once a week....which is redicolous...but! The story is good! Because now I adopted him for free from them and he is right as rain! Eating an appriopriate sized hopper every five days! He's an amazing eater! I think he's still a little under weight, but he's gained so much since I got him three weeks ago.

    He's definitely underweight, but I'm not surprised. He's in great hands now, with proper feeding and care he'll be up to proper weight in a few months.
