Finally found E's in the DFW

Post by soilentgringa » Tue Oct 06, 2015 12:42 pm

For some reason the Town East Petco has been getting in E's lately!

I usually adopt and have never come across E's in my area but today a friend bought me 2 E's with plans to get more in the future. Good thing we have extra empty tanks!!!

Here are Wall-E (small blueish in the nerite) and Eva (white shell).

Yes I have big hands and chunky fingers...lol my grandmother used to say "Those fat little fingers are fast" when I played Super Mario 3 on our NES.

They're very cute!

My youngest had a bit of an obsession with Wall-E a while back. He does that with movies/shows, finds one he loves and watches it over and over and over and over again until the rest of us could reenact the whole thing in our sleep. :)

We were there last Thursday and they'd just gotten in at least a dozen.

Well that's awesome. Hopefully they will still have some next Sunday. My boyfriend lives out that way and we are spending the weekend at his place next weekend! *fingers crossed*

Wall-E is an amazing name! I wish I had thought of that.

Something must be happening with the larger area Petcos' in Texas. I just got some from a Petco in Houston, that I don't believe had them before.

Yes. That is where I got my E's and my friend got hers. We go in there once a week or so to check things out.
