| ok so i popped into a do it all pet shop (sells everything) to have a nosey around and quickly found the reptile area! as it was a independant pet shop there prices were STUPID high but one of the vivs had a label on saying make a offer. On looking there was i very dark corn with a kink 2rds down the spine. I asked the usual questions all was ok so i handled him i did notice a lameness past the kink so asked if he still toilets ok (he does) so i said £15.00 ?? shop owner said sold and even gave me 4 adult mice for him. i've called him gizmo and has a lovely home with me now even though gizmo is part disabled past the kink i love him already. |

I'm SO glad you went into that shop Jason  ! Well done for taking him on. The kink has obviously not effected his growth, which is positive. I do hope he settles in ok and can't wait to see pics of him. Love the name, Gizmo .
