Not to detail further, however yeah. It's a little disconcerting. I've recently moved to Florida, and am currently looking to expand my collection. Any breeder who has been worth my time, has stuck to a 3 feed rule. I'm currently discussing a purchase with Deborah (from this forum) who's no different.


Any less and I'd be a little concerned. No different than buying a puppy or a kitten under the 'designated' weeks of age imo.
