Its almost too small to get your head round... I'd love to see some for real

[China Doll]

Want one for my desk at work!

[rowanwitch]

a tiny tank the size of a snowglobe ....

[China Doll]

It would at least provide more intelligent conversation than I am currently getting in the office :c)

[rowanwitch]

Be company for me as I work on my own... Make a change from the visiting pigeons

[NOX]

Dinosaurs for a matchbox, theyre fabulous:)

[rowanwitch]

its hard to imagine a vertebrate existing that can be so small and perfect... truly amazing

[flump1]

That is so cute.....are you sure it is not a flea in fancy dress ? x

Just wait until it grows.

[rowanwitch]

Thats the whole point the adults grow to a maximum of 29mm I've had fingernails longer than that

My ideal pet. I saw this on a news website yesterday and wanted one immediately :) Such a shame they are only found in a very small part of Madagascar.

China doll, do your employers know you are wasting valuable working time on AB?

[daffy654]

How is that any of your business maggiebee?

[Mosaic]

What a little sweetie. I could let them roam about my houseplants eating the little flea-hopping insect things.

[mccfluff]

bet they'll be extinct soon

[rowanwitch]

no way they will get some and breed them for collectors then as pets... I love the idea of something so tiny

[maggiebee]

Sure China Doll can speak for herself Daffy?

[mccfluff]

i'll tell redman you said that

[daffy654]

I'm sure she can Maggiebeee, I still think it is none of your business... or anyone else's for that matter.

I don't have to justify my AB usage with you or any other member of this site maggiebee... daffy's response is the same I would have given. :c)

[mccfluff]

you have to justify it with me
