boscs can be a bit clumsy an have a good rampage when given the oppurtunity though, the can cause alot of damge to ur property and themselves if they happen to get out when u dont what them to. The stress itself from escaping an realising he doesnt have the things he needs could cause him to be a bit jittery an he couldve fell quite easily, Don doesnt tend to climb down off things, he just flops down

That bosc looks lovely though, u should anme him as he could quite possibly be with u a while! If only it had been female, i wouldve loved to have a go at taking it on when it was healthy :p

lol thinking about it, there was a guy a while back desperate to get rid of a bosc in blackburn which isnt too far away, perhaps it couldve come from far away to get to u, perhaps it was fate hehe.

glad it went the opposite way then . i dont think i like the thought of going out to the bin and finding a bosc running after me lol

[Reptilerescueden]

Nah the vets in wigan have a fair idea where it came from but sadly he didnt register.
I've named him squiggle cos of his crimped tail.
He seems to be doing ok, I have been oushing fluids and tonight he ended up biting me dueing the process which was a brilliant sign. He also ate a nice soaked mouse covered in calcim. Just hope its not the caml before the storm so to speak.
As for rehoming... well i can't think about that for now, however he would be welcome to stay.
My main concern is improving his health, but will keep you all updated.

[Blazey]

what was the bite like

[Reptilerescueden]

Lol just a nip. He made me bleed a little but nothing major. If he wanted to do more damage he sure could of done.

[Reptilerescueden]

well hes eating, pooing, weeing and all the normal reactions. YAY! I am so happy as this is looking freaking great!

[tombraider]

Thats brilliant news. I get the feeling youve fell in love and are going to keep him

[Reptilerescueden]

Certainly fell in love but unsure if he is staying.
The problem I face is that if i fall in love with every reptile who had a crap prevous life the i'd be over run so to speak.
However i am considering rehoming and if anyone who is interested in rehoming squiggle then contact me. I will be inspecting homes and setups along with the necessary paperwork.
He is a freakin cutie though LOL.
