She's beautiful. I think it's great that you are trying to give her a better home.

Thanks for sharing with us. :)

alrite i provided more new fotos
tis time i changed the base to newspaper temporary becuz she didnt seem to adapt well wif the dry sandy place and i was afraid the sand might cause it breathing problems or eye irritation when burrowing

maybe when i hv time i'll change it to soil and wheat grass hay but it seems to be very comfortable wif newspaper lik when my fren gave it , jus tt now i hv a basking area and water dish instead and more space

she didnt eat for bout 3 days which is normal lol when she was in tt dry habitat but she started to eat well and i was glad when i changed the base

approaching the already eaten romaine lettuce

yummy lol , look at its mouth
