Default Marla Just Strike Fed!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh my god, months of hard work pay off im so happy! I just had a little cry
After a long stay with the vets, 3 different courses of antibiotic injections to get rid of a very nasty RI, several treatments for mites and a LONG stay in quarantine my girl is now in a nice big viv and she just ate for the first time!
I couldnt be any happier right now, despite everything else thats going on this is just such great news!
I can still see and feel every bump of her spine and every rib but now shes eating things can only get better

Im going to leave her for a couple of weeks now to get used to having food in her belly again after so long, my vet said she'd been in such a state of starvation her body had started living off her muscle so its going to take a while to get her fit and healthy again but finally I can see the light at the end of the tunnel...

well done marla baby!

*suspicious link removed* girlfriend whenevr there was an update) I really happy for you as you really have worked so hard and had to deal with so much. I'm going throguh a few snake problems aswell at the moment, that just seems to be never ending (althoguh not as bad as marla) so i know what its like to be constantly stressed about them.

I genuinly hope the best for you and marla

p.s Do you know what happened to jonnymarto ( i can't remember if that was his name)

</P>
