[QUOTE="KatyAnn, post: 178610, member: 33324"] The skin on her abdomen is very dark, almost black. It's a bit darker than the rest of her body. It doesn't look shiny though, so I just assumed it was how her abdomen was suppose to look underneathe the courser, long hairs that are missing . She also looks a bit faded in colorin IMO. Her yellow knees are very drab. The lady at the shop told me she was a surrender from a couple who had her since she was a sling and that they were very hesitant about letting her go, but had to for reasons unknown. The not pooping part is what concerns me the most. I know their metabolism is slow, but you'd think she would have expelled those worms by now. She is kept in my bedroom which is usually around 74 degrees. Thank you for the response, I appreciate it. I'm just hoping "she" is actually a she & not a MM in his last weeks of life :( Oh, and now that I'm apart of this forum & seeing all the wonderful Ts for sale, I'll never return to a pet shop!
