    Talking Go Clint!!!!

    Clint must be feeling brave today as she has, for the first time ever, properly ventured out of hiding to explore her viv! It's a miracle! Usualy in order to get her to move out of her plastic tree (where she spends 99% of her time) food has to be put out or I have to stick my hand in the viv and touch her which makes her shoot around like a bolt of lightening. These past few days I've noticed her head peeking out of some moss (a new addition to her viv) every now and again but today she was right out in the open, of her own accord, not hiding at all ... she has now been out for about 3 hours! She is also getting better at eating ... we used to have to cover her viv with a blanket or leave the room in order for her to eat but now she's doing it when we're moving around the room and not seeming too bothered by it. It's great seeing her gain so much confidence. When we first got her handling was difficult because the slightest movement set her off in a frenzy but she's calmed down sooooooooooooo much now and will actualy just sit in my hand. I'm just so happy she's getting out and about more, I was beginning to wonder when she'd gain enough confidence to do so. Her viv has recently been moved so it sits right next to J and Slithers' ... so perhaps she sees them and realises it's not so bad? Anyway, just thought I'd share with you all!!!!

    Also, here's some pictures ...
