So was in my new reptile store in Cardiff (has been open a while, but Ive never been before as I live in Hertfordshire, parents live in Cardiff) and they have the most gorgeous adult male Yemen - he was handed in to them at 18 months and he is now 23 months and still homeless Sad

He is truely lovely and so friendly - came out on my arm and walked up to my hair which he liked! I was so tempted to take him (obviously not there and then as would have to set up his home first Smile

) The guy in the shop loves him, but no room in his own collection and no one wants him as people just want youngsters all the time to watch them grow (fair enough - im havin youngster Panthers the end of this year) but I just would love him to give him the attention he wants! hmmmmm.....

lol, Paul, believe me I would now! However, I have until June til I qulify as a Vet and unfortnuately still live with the parents technically until I have a job! So if he is still around in Sept when I start a job then Id love to have him. He is so colourful to! Lots of green and yellows. He also has a 4 month old female there who was equally as friendly and didnt want to go back into her viv! lol! He was asking £100 for the boy, wonder if he would take offers to include a setup or something.... lol! Best housing for Yemens? Was going to put the Panthers in a screen. He has the Yemen in a wooden viv with vents and glass front and a small waterfall. He was looking very nice and settled in there so guess if not causing problems with health...
hmmm..... Damn student life! I really would love him. Damn living with parents! ooooooo if it had just been in a few more months. Im 24 and can fend more myself and I look after myself and my kids (the animals I mean not actual children!)

I think he likes that camera. He does seem to look at it a lot.

You must try and get some pics of the yemen Soph.

I have to say Yemen don't appeal to me in the same way a panther does, but I think a lot of that may be to do with then usually not being very tame, so I agree with Paul, you may be passing up a rare opportunity.

So just forget it Soph, you know you can't have him..........can you.........hey, you can't, can you.......................can you ?????? LMAO
