Come January, this little girl only weighed in at 121grams and was severely dehydrated. Now 8 months later, she is doing great has a nice solid weight to her and does not even look the same. My "special" relative said the snake would not eat and that is why it was so little. Since I got her, she has never missed a meal. Good luck in getting them from her, I feel for your situation.
Nice idea on the reverse psychology! That didn't run through my mind but you have a solid point. Congrats on getting your little girl back to being healthy! I'm so glad there are such good hearted people in this twisted world that take in animals that are in need of TLC. I offered both an adult mouse on the second day I had them (on top of having a husbandry change) & they took them with NO hesitation. Poor things were starving to death. In the pics I provided, both snakes were not "empty"... they each had an adult mouse in their system & they still look that skinny. It's just going to take some time & both will be up to weight & 100% health. blessings & good luck with your rescue!
