    Smile Re: Fuzzy's acting weird

    Cool, two of my animals came from Petco and Petsmart respectively. Only one was on sale (lol). Most of the normal bp's that come to both Petco and Petsmart are wc/ch which means the parent was imported here from Africa and was carrying eggs. While in transit, or upon arrival into the States, laid her eggs and they hatched out at a distribution center, or holding center. Thus, the parent was w/c and the offspring captive hatched or c/h. The hatchlings do get substandard care and suffer some of the illnesses associated with the same. That doesn't mean the hatchlings are totally w/o hope or they can't be a great addition to a collection. My bp from Petco is a pastel female that I have had since Jun '14. That is because only recently did Petco begin selling morphs. My normal female from Petsmart I had since Jul '14 and she is a lot more fearful when it comes to noises and handling but a total sweetheart. Her personality is so different from all my other bp's. Mainly the fearfulness. IMO, the c/h hatchlings of these w/c parents sold by Petsmart and Petco seem to harbor more of their wild instincts than the c/b and c/h bp's. So when you think it's weird behavior think more of instinctual because of her lineage and that it will take a bit more to acclimate. Stay in peace and not pieces. Good luck.
