irene? I go there often. I wanted to get a Common Snapping Turtle from there. Their pets aren't exactly the healthiest... Their baby common snapping turtles are cute lar, but got all these white patches on the body (on all four legs and even tail. 2 of the babies were so sick it could hardly move. The white also coated the eye lids). I know it's either a disease or a vitamin deficiency, so I purposely ask the pet shop worker 'wat is the white patches?" just to alert them that their turtles are sick.
=.=" The person tell me so many excuses.
1st excuse = nothing lar. Just skin shedding. I used to have 2 RES for 3 years before they were stolen so I know the difference between skin shedding or not. So I tell him "I had turtles. Shedding don't look like that".
2nd Excuse = Nothing wan. Just body pattern growing in as it grow up. Worse excuse ever.... There is a larger version of the CST in the tank right below the baby's tank and it looks nothing like the babies with white patches. The larger CST is healthy and obviously no white patches.
3rd Excuse = Don't worry la. It will just drop off wan. If it's a disease or a deficiency, it obviously won't just "drop off". Plus all the 3 reasons aren't even related! That just tells me he doesn't know what he's saying and is just making up excuses.
BTW the false eye was so cute! I would get it if it wasn't so costly...

I booked the bigger one. The smaller one had some patches on its tail. I think the bigger one bit the smaller one's tail. They're selling at RM 330 to me lar. Picking up next week but got deposit la.
In actual I like the smaller one but my partner like the bigger one...
I heard Jalan Pasar is selling at RM 380? For alli, not common.

o! I was wondering. So pyramid = no good? I saw in the pet shop got many expensive ones are all highly pyramid wan so i thought pyramid = good. Ok ok, now I know. thanks for info.
