Well I have had so many people comment on her size saying that she must be older than the 12 months that I was told when we bought her I decided to do some detective work. After asking about I managed to finally speak to a person who works where she came from before being bought by the shop that I bought her from. He actually remembered her from the pics and description I was able to give and dates of purchase. She was taken in to Coldblooded in Essex after her then owner decided they were unable to house her growing size. Coldblooded took her in and was told her age as between 18 months and two years and as a BCI x BCC. This will make her between 2 1/2 and 3 years old. I do think it's a little sad that she has been passed around from shop to shop like this. She must have just started to settle somewhere before being passed on to somewhere else. I can forgive her for being a little grumpy at times and hopefully she will gain confidence and start to come out around her viv more as she will not be being passed on anywhere by me.

OMG there's a bit of difference between 1 yr and 3! So nice for you that you have managed to find out some more about her past - even if it was a sad start, then at least you know she now has a stable home with you, and like you say will probably settle right down once she realises she's actually staying!
