this is BB - she is a Jacksonii, she was sent to me from Steve McNary :) she has a twisted spine - Steve was looking for a good home for her, and I (as some know ) have always been pulled to the "special" kind of critters - well, my pity for her soon turned to fascination! I can not keep my eyes off of her, she moves in such a way, like a fiddler crab, or spider - she can get around just as well as any cham I have ever seen, and - she is quite fast when she wants to be- Steve has been great making me feel prepared not only before she got here, but as well as when I received her- I thought I would have to give her intense care- but, HA- she does not need any- as he also told me, she needs no special care really- she is so pretty, and the way she gets about- amazing :D
here is her X- ray- ( I took 4 chams for x-rays last Thur! :eek: :) ) hers was by far the most unreal - how she gets about, she can twist her pelvis in a 180 - latch on to the vine, and just go the other way- THANK YOU Steve for my very unique girl :) love her little horns - so cute !

She is adorable!!! I'm not surprised that she can get around well - I've got a 3-legged cat who was always tougher to catch than any other cat I've ever owned. Best of luck with BB - she reminds me of the Flip Top guy from the toothpaste commercials from years ago :D

lol - yes, those 3 leggers, just as fast ( or faster ! ) then the 4's - but look at the 2nd pic- the direction her pelvis is facing- is crazy- but she just goes on about her way - she can also flip it back under her - no one ever told her she "can't " - so she does :D
 
Cheryl, I could not have found a better home for BB then with you. I told you she was a tough little girl and could take care of herself!!! Thank You for giving her a perfect home. Out of 50 plus baby's she was the only one born with a deformity. Oops, don't tell her that as she thinks she is normal...:D:D:D
Thanks again
Steve

BTW BB stands for Broke Back

yes- LOL she is less than thrilled - the look on her face- :p that poor girl, she is so used to going to the vets now- I dont get it - she is "healthy" - but just does all this weird stuff - she was getting checked for babies - I think she is going to be a momma again ( not that I really wanted that :cool: ) but it sure as heck beats 31 slugs! she is so crabby - lol but at least she does not try to bite my hand off anymore :eek: I love my crabby vine lump :p
