Soooo today i had to go to Petco because its the only place in the area that sells the fish my turtles like. They are picky lil boogers. Well anyways, i decided to walk over to the reptiles area just to be nosy and see what they had. I happed to look at a Skink tank. I looked around for a bit and couldn't find him.

Finally i looked up and there he was in a tiny crack above his tank freaking out. The little guy had escaped and no one bothered to notice or point it out. It looked like he had been there for some time. He was really pissed off. I was rubbing his back and he kept trying to bite me. Finally a employee came over and was like OMG whats going on. I explained the situation and she proceeded to pull out the cage from the bottom and just about smash the lil guy between the light and the cage.

Eventually he came out and i grabbed him and he bit me pretty hard. It was quite shocking, It didnt hurt but he did draw a drop of blood. We finally got him back in his cage and i explained to them they need to keep better track of their animals or at least make sure they close the cage tightly because that guy was real tiny and if he would of gotten away they would of never found him.


I know its not too much of a Petco story but it mad me a bit upset.


thanks for reading haha
