Talking Progress

just thought i'd post this, for the people that told me to keep them updated on Echo's health. i'd really like to thank everyone that gave me advice and helped me to worry less when Echo seemed so very very small for her age. when i got her, she was 10g at 5 months old, and i've had her for a month now...

these photos are for size comparison:

this is the day she got here

this was taken today

and this is for weight contrast:


her colour is a little faded today, and i can't currently see the green around her eyes, so i think she's coming up to her 4th shed since i got her.

again, thanks to everyone that gave me advice on getting her to eat, what may be wrong, etc.

yes, yes she is... it was open. she saw the dark box and just thought 'yay'. i only just managed to snap that picture before she was off the scales and scrambling towards the cake box.

thanks everyone. apparently, all Echo needed to be able to grow properly was some space of her own, and a constantly varying diet, which she no longer refuses to eat. she even has a taste for crickets now that they don't scare her
