Picked this girl up the tag said "Import female, not eating, no mites or ticks" talked to the guy and found out what he's done and not done yet so I have something to go on. Main thing I have noticed is she is highly stressed (tried to bite the roommate when he snapped the pic!) so I am going to leave her be for a week or two and let her settle down and acclimate to her new home. LOL After I gave him the money, he leans over and says,"Do you know what people are saying to me about her?" and I replied, "She looks like a burgandy, but I wasn't going to say that before I bought her." LOL No black on this pretty girl, wish me luck with getting her feeding again! She weighs 807g as of Saturday night.

Nice looking female. I too hope you get her back to feeding, I will never deal with a WC again if I can help it.

Thanks for all the well wishes. Finding that the hardest thing is to not look in on her 2-3 times a day (just to look at her LOL) and just leave her alone. I figure if I can't out-patience her I will out-stubborn her! For only $40 is worth the hassle for the chance at burgs :)

LOL She wouldn't be my only one! I've got 4 others, 2 that were sold to me as wc/imports, and 2 that were sold to me as captive bred but I suspect otherwise. Oh, and another wc female I bought at the show for only $20 because a cornsnake person couldn't get her to eat. At least with these two I am fully aware of what I am getting into. Should be getting more pics this weekend of the three I bought.
