Lucy's Waking Up

[Little Wise Owl]

She's finally showing some activity and she's finally shed that nasty stuck skin on her tail.

And this is a large (female?) Argentine from the Canadian Breeder's Expo this weekend.

I apologize for looking like garbage. lol

 

[Rhetoric]

I'm glad shes finally up! Hopefully you guys can become "friends" quickly, maybe she was flustered or something before she had gone down.

 

[Little Wise Owl]

Maybe. She's been acting the same so far though.

Still no eating (not even her favoured egg yolks), still insanely jumpy.... She's going to take a lot of work, I imagine.

She's looking rejuvenated,.. so fresh and so clean

 

[Little Wise Owl]

Now she just needs to plump up a little!

 

[Little Wise Owl]

Oh look! She's eating! Not exactly what I'd like her to eat but at least it's something. Time to start the extremely slow process of turning egg yolk into ground turkey and so on...

 

[Little Wise Owl]

She finally ate something other than egg yolk... I left her two pinky mice while I went to work and she ate them!

 

[Rhetoric]

Yay! Was it the first time shes eaten them with you?

 

[Little Wise Owl]

Yeah, she's never eaten any pinkies. The last time I thought she did, she just buried them and I found them very mummified later. lol

Today we made some progress with handling. She only huffed and puffed a little.
