I have seen pet stores selling worse, that one is not too bad. I saw an albino one once that had a piece of gravel stuck in one of its holes.

This store used to be my favorite... But now it's becoming unreliable and the prices are getting higher

It looks ALOT worse in person. The side not shown on camera had holes dow its WHOLE side!

the O was probably turned in by the owner like that. but for a store to capitalize on it's disease is sickening.

geeze, gotta wonder where they got the idea. what if the new 'variant' label is already being used elsewhere?

It looks like early stage hole in the head but may be fixable with clean water and medication. Maybe you can enlighten the store owner with information from the Internet and make him feel foolish. It could have been a trade-in but it's no excuse for the deception.
