The local petsmart had gotten their first T. Avic metallica and had it in a keeper with just a dusting of dry sub and a medium lizard water bowl.  The girl in that section was so happy they finally got a T. Then my son said why don't you take care of it? It's in the wrong enclosure.  She just walked away. My son has wanted one for a long time. But we couldn't save this one. And it was almost full grown and he wants a sling.I'm going to have to start avoiding the local petsmart now <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" /></blockquote>
