ummmmm...todays new pet

well as its nearly two whole days since my last new pet so...
no this was an accident honest.....
...
I was in the pet shop, when a guy came in trying to sell his leopard geckos, the shop owner said that they looked too ill to take and that he wasn't interested as he didn't have the room to look after them, both are painfully thin, and one has had his tail bitten off. They both have blue feet where they have been kept in blue sand??

the shop keeper said that all he would do was put them out of thier misery....
the guy left them on the counter and asked him to do just that

The shop owner saw the look on my face.. and asked if I would like to take them free but with no guarentees,,,,
so here they are..eating for Britain

Re: ummmmm...todays new pet

Aww, they are lovely, poor things though!

My Hubby wants a leo, but I hate insects, so don't know how i'd cope with the feeding lol

I hope they recover well!

Congrat's Igne. I'll be looking forward to photos in a few weeks of nice fat, healthy Geckios.

How come you seem to get all your beasties for free. Not that I'm jealous or anything...it's just not fair, that's all!

Personally, I wouldn't even touch sick looking animals with a shovel. Too scared of diseases.

Re: ummmmm...todays new pet

good job saving them - they're very cute
our rescued gecko never got fat, but she's healthy
makes nests and lays eggs from time to time
then she eats them
I wonder whether she knows that they're not fertile
