New garter - I just couldn't help myself

Richard said bay watch, that's probably what stuck in your mind.

I loved Charlie's Angels when I was little...my mom and I used to watch it at the beach all the time...that and Dallas, Love Boat, and Fantasy Island. Man, I still wish I could go to Fantasy Island...

So, Chris how's that new snake doing?

She's settling in. Spending a bit less time in her water, but still in there a fair bit.
I offered her food again yesterday, both pinky pieces and trout, which she sniffed and ignored. I tried offering with tongs and leaving it in there in a bowl, so I hope she's just taking her time to get used to her new home.
I'm not handling her, except the couple of times I had her out for photos. On those occasions she quickly settled in my hand though.
So on the whole she's doing okay. Once she's started eating I think I'll consider taking her for a checkup and collecting her poo for a fecal float.

Sounds good.

She ate for the first time today. So a positive on a sad snake day.
Next weekend I plan to get her checked over by the vet.

Glad to hear she's finally eating. Looks like progress.

Sounds like some progress Chris.
