    Re: Rescue/Rehome of 2 BPs

    It has been almost a month, wow.

    Not really any new pictures right now, but the girl is really doing great. Even compared to how she felt after the last shed posted here, her scales are much closer to normal in feel.

    She seems to be putting food to use for length growth instead of filling out, so she's not really filling out her looser skin yet, but it is only showing wrinkles in certain positions or during handling instead of constantly like when she was dehydrated at the start. Her muscle tone feels much better as well, the limp noodle is long gone now, so I'm sure it is only a matter of time and meals now before the rest catches up.

    The only issue remaining for her seems to be her odd tongue flicking. Other than a few weeks not long after I brought her home, I haven't seen her do a full tongue flick; she has done it before, so it isn't a physical deformity. I'm keeping a close eye for RI, but she shows no symptoms of it. (No mucous, no wheezing, no popping, no open mouth breathing, etc.) She gets it out to just past the fork and retracts. There are no odd lumps under her chin or anything that could obstruct it, so as best I can tell, she just is choosing not to.

    It is possible she does flick it fully when hunting food, but due to the dim lighting, I haven't seen it. I may take her out for more than a few minutes tonight and see if it comes out when she has settled more and exploring.
