She was an accidental breeding due to cohabitation. The guy sold her to a friend, who somehow became petrified of her. Guy taped her enclosure shut and stopped watering or feeding her. Somehow along the way, she lost the tip of her tail. I think I have pictures of her old enclosure somewhere, she was just basically living on layers of her old, flakey shed. She was effectively blind thanks to layers of eyecaps and covered in shed.
My brother was somehow put in contact with him, and he gave her to him, and then he gave her to me. He basically walked me through helping her out as he has experience with rescuing ball pythons. She's eating well now and had her first shed with me. It all came off absolutely perfectly.Still have no idea why he was scared of her, Jolyne doesn't have a mean bone in her body. Even when we first got her, she was the sweetest animal I ever saw.
