Heya everyone,



I live out in Kalamazoo MI, and they had their first annual reptile and exotic animal show...and of course I attended! lol, anyways, I had to fight the urge to buy a baby reeves turtle, and an adorable crested gecko (I actually wound up going home with only silkworms ) but when I was there I saw two flapnecks that looked to be just a couple days old. I questioned the vendor and he said that they were 3 months old! He said they hadnt grown much, and they were seriosuly the size of a penny.



I took a closer look and realized both of their eyes were closed, no humidity at all in the little CUP that they were in, and they looked to be very thin! I felt terrible, and I knew I couldnt do much for them, as they obviously hadnt had proper care and husbandry...so what Im getting at is should I go back a attempt to "rescue" them, Im almost positive they wont make it, but its really sickening to see them like that...thanks in advance...



Michele
