so went into the pet store(no need to say the name, y'all already know) this morning to get my son some new fish decor and against my better judgement I went looking in on the chams they have. And what do I see....this poor guy with severe MBD!! I politely asked for a manager and took her to the side. I was livid furious but, it's better to be nice and get more done. I told her I wanted to privately let her know that this cham has severe MBD and needs to see a vet immediately. And that he possibly has a broken leg. She was like "really?!? We were just working with him this morning(whatever that means) and he's walking fine." After pointing out exactly what I was looking at with his legs and explaining what causes it and that their nature is to act as normal as possible because of predators we was like "oh goodness". Then giving the benefit of the doubt I said that it probably wasn't anything they did that it takes months of improper care for this to happen she said it actually probably was because they've had him since he was tiny. She said she would be talking with her care manager and see what they will do. Then she goes, "you seem like you know what your doing and talking about, would you want to take him if they decide to just adopt him out". Crap, I don't really need another one but I don't think I can just walk away now. So I left her with my phone number. We shall see what happens. But man, this gets to me!!
