Short story:
I have a gorgeous APTOR for adoption. She needs to see a vet. I will not ship.
Long story:
My APTOR, Leyna, is having a really tough time this season. She's been holding onto an egg for a month now. It's one egg as far as I can tell. This is her second clutch, and she passed the first just fine. The egg is huge and hard and she doesn't seem to be trying to pass it. She hasn't eaten (before she was ill, she fed on mealworms or dubia roaches) in about that time, either, but began losing weight at the beginning of the season. She's very thin. She will not take slurry or jump-start (she shakes her head and spits it out). Yesterday she showed a little bit of a feeding response to a live pinkie, but she has no real fight in her so once it started fighting back, she was uninterested. Once the pinkie was killed, she was remained uninterested. She's starting to get sluggish. I've done all I can for her. I can't afford to take her to the vet, but I think she really needs to see one. I'm putting her up for adoption on the strict condition that the person is able to come here (Oregon, IL) and pick her up (I won't ship her), will make her a veterinary appointment, and will send me updates on her health. I really care about this girl, but I don't have a job and so can't afford a vet visit.
The first attached picture is one of her when she was healthy, the second is one from about a month ago. She's gotten thinner since then. I can see her hip bones and there isn't much fat on her tail at all. I will get a more recent picture of her if you guys want it..I just really don't want to bother her right now. I'm also sorry about the color difference. Neither picture is in natural light :/
