SHE DID IT!!!!! (im yelling this time lol) she ate the first pinky mouse i gave her!!! im soo excited. today is a good day for her and I!!!. i went to petco to get some crickets and decided it was time to give her something new, to balance her diet. so i bought a three pack of pinky mice maybe about the size of a quarter or half dollar length wise. well i new she wouldnt eat anything dead and they had no live ones so i also decided to pick up some tongs. they worked! im so excited. she took the first cricket within the first 4 seconds so i fed her another one. took her a second or two longer but she ate it. after the third cricket she stopped giving a ****, so i stopped putting it in her face (not directly dont worry just a statement) and she went after one on the ground then left two more. so all together she ate around 4 or five crickets. then came the pinky mouse. i put it in cold water to thaw for fifteen minutes (while i was feeding crickets i did this) then put it in warm water for another five minutes. grabbed it by the stubby tail with the tongs and dragged it by the tail around Dorothy. she was not interested at first keeped at it though, moving it all around it front of her. then out of no where bang! she took it. Im really excited. i tryed to give her one of the crickets that had gotten away from her a few moments before but she looked at it like what is that? give me some more of those pink things lol. i have another pinky defrosting so im going to attempt to give her that one then call it a meal and leave her be. just wanted to share my wonderful news.
