Another New Pet...

My husband bought a pet yesterday while I was at the pet store looking for scorp supplies. He almost bought a Ornamental Baboon Tarantula, but he ended up buying his dream pet.For as long as I've known him, he's wanted a hedgehog. The pet store I go to gets them in once a year, and they just happen to have them yesterday. So I let him get it. He named it Razor, after I told him he could not call him Sonic. He is a baby African Pygmy Hedgehog. He's a pretty cool little dude, runs around in a hamster ball. He fell asleep inside the ball today. Here's a couple of pics. He moved his head in the last one.

We will be getting a couple spiders come fall/winter. He wants a tarantula, and I have two more scorps on my list to acquire before I move on. But he has to pay this guy off first(about $180 for all). And Paar.... this is just for you... Imp & Djinn...

The thing is cute. He kept falling off the leather couch cause its slippery. After a while he got tired and curled up under Ryan's stomach and fell asleep. It was cute as hell.

Those little quills do hurt if they catch you right. He tried to crawl up my pant leg and got stuck right before he reached my knee. So he switched to reverse. ouch. My leg felt prickly for 15 minutes after that. He's also a nibbler. He put two tiny little holes in my one finger yesterday at the pet store. He thinks your fingers are a salty toy, lol.

Aww, I've always wanted to get a hedgehog.

It's really small, is it a baby?
