Very Active, Very Hungry
I have been letting her roam around for an hour or two every evening - it seems to stimulate her and get her moving around the viv a lot more than she had been doing.
I'm not convinced that this is the whole cause of her
being more alert and active - it could be that she is
recovering from whatever made her so poorly. However,
she seems to enjoy the freedom, so I’ll continue for
now.
Offered her a large mouse tonight and she struck at
it as soon as she saw it. unfortunately, she missed,
and banged her nose on a log instead. No worries
though, she struck again as soon as I moved it and
swallowed it quickly (right way round, this time!).
The sores on her side are still evident, but they are
dry and don’t seem to bother her. She doesn’t flinch
when I touch them. I expect she will have those until
her next sloughing.
She still has some scraps of skin round the back of
her head and the first few inches of the back and
sides. It is coming off in bits and pieces though, so
I’m not greatly worried any more.
