Mack Snow update - Doubled weight in 2 weeks.

[Neo.Reptiliac]

So a couple weeks ago I got this little girl from a person on Fauna. They told me she was a little thin in the tail when I was asking about her. I got her sent to me for $50 shipped and felt something was fishy but really wanted a mack snow so I took my chances. I got her and she looked horrible! I mean other then the fact she was malnurished she had good patterns and color but I wanted to cry when I seen her. I emailed the guy back and cussed him out for treating such a pretty gecko (which was suppose to be 4 years old) at such poor state. I weighed her and she was just 20g when I got her. So 2 weeks have passed and Ive fattened her up on gut loaded crickets. She has gained up to 46 grams in that time. Im so proud of her and so I got a before and after photo to share.

Wow, two weeks? Looks great and will look even better once it builds up it's legs. Great work, something to be proud of for sure.

 

[Neo.Reptiliac]

Yep =) Im so proud of her. Ive always been a softy and end up buying animals no one else wants cause they may not be perfect. But I'm never disapointed when I do so. Cause I seem to have a good eye for things that might not look so great at that momment. XP might be why my hubby keeps gripping me out about taking in junk from people. I wanna use it to make something nice XD

Very inspiring indeed and i'm glad you've never given up on her and gave her a new life she's def a beauty:main_thumbsup: and the guy deserves to be reported

He gave me this lame story when I chewed him out. He said she was like that when he got her from someone else. And just had her for a week so he didnt have time to fatten her up.
