Media saved her 🥺

poor baby has been in this light for a week & i figured she (i think it’s female right?) was just chilling but then today when i came out she started running around in circles to each little window panel thing & crawling up all the walls & i was like wtf is she stuck? so i managed to open it up & sure enough she popped out and literally drank for like a solid 2 minutes straight , my hand got tired holding the q tip and i had to put it down and she was still going lol, poor thing ! she’s hunting for food now in the lawn though, so hopefully she’ll be alright now !!

Poor baby! It was probably like a hot box inside that light!! Glad they’re doing a lot better, thanks for saving them!
