Update 01-09-15

We lost Morgan in November. Our power was out for about 36 hours, give or take, and while that only mildly annoyed Lilly, it was deadly for poor Morgan. My guess is that it was either due to her age (we don't know exactly how old she was, just had an educated guess that she was at least 7-10 years old, if not older.) or there may have been some other underlying condition that we never found. She was in pretty poor shape when she came to us, but appeared to have recovered.

On a lighter note, I have not posted an update on Falkor or the babies in a good, LONG while.

Still skinny, but acting much healthier.

Falkor is doing quite well. He is being quite slow about gaining weight, but he eats willingly, and has not lost any weight. His color and energy have improved too. He is still very shy around most people, but REACHES for me when I take him out. He knows who rescued him  :)








The babies have gotten quite large. They just cleared the 6 month mark. Most of the ones that will be going to new homes have been picked up, so I am down to 8 babies now.

 

When they were tiny, ALL 15 OF THEM could fit around this little dish they are drinking from. Not anymore though.

(that's not dirt in the dish, it's the pattern on the ceramic. The dish is spotless)




NEW ADDITION: Petrie.

I received an adorable little pastel ball python as a Christmas gift this year. He's about 4 months old, and his favorite hobby is pretending to be a cookie.

Falkor Update

Falkor on the way to the vet

Took Falkor to the vet last week. He had a general wellness exam and had a fecal done.

Aside from being VERY skinny (he only weighed 185 grams) and having a MASSIVE infestation of pinworms, he was healthy.

He just had his last dose of his first round (of 2 rounds) of Panacur to clear out the pinworms. Round 2 starts in a couple weeks to get any that hadn't hatched yet during this round of treatment.

He had another bath today, and graduated from paper towels to a real cage liner.

He already looks happier.

New rescue, calling him Falkor. 

He was found in some guys backyard by his dog (who luckily was afraid to touch it so he just barked at it). The guy said he tried to find his owner, but couldn't.











He couldn't keep the dragon either, so I picked him up earlier today.

He is a little on the skinny side, but otherwise seems ok. He acted very feral at first, but he has calmed down rather quickly and is acting quite friendly now.










He has had a bath, ate a few worms, and is currently settling in to his new cage.

While he was getting his bath I noticed that someone had painted his claws pink.









He will be going in to the vet later this week for a health check and a parasite test.
