Yeah, I don't expect to see one for months. Poor thing. We had one live with us for about a month recovering from a bad bite. She was very easy to live with; sat in the sun on the floor or the window sill. We named her Betty.

Just rescued one yesterday in between heavy rain showers and cold winter weather, shouldn't have been out and about should have been hibernating.
