hello all i havent posted here for a while but i have been keeping in touch with tracie. i got my venus a year ago from a girl who didnt have a clue how to take proper care of her, she fed her wax worms as a staple and she lived in dirty conditions and was bred at a year old but my poor girl was...

oh wow i understand completely how difficult and agonising that decision is to make but only you will know if your baby is suffering or not therefore its the right decision for her, not necessarily for you as no one wants to lose a very loved pet but for her it is and she will then be at peace...
