I never thought she would ever live this long. We have been through everything you can think of.... mites when she was younger, infections, not eating, assisted feeding, laying eggs but never been mated, stuck egg, she has a bone deformity... possibly spinal kinking... she has lived at friends houses, my mom's house, with my son... and now we live with my daughter (in the moutains, lows get in the 20's). Oh and power outages... my daughter and I have both had to sleep with her to keep her warm.
And when i got her the encylopedia said 20-25 years in captivity... go figure.
