Sorry, I did have to chuckle at your little adventure. I noticed when I was looking to expand my own FBT collection, that it seemed like everyone wanted one or two or three at the same time, so for a week, no petstores in my area had them. Then, 20 came in, and from that batch I managed to snag a beautiful brown female and a great bi-coloured male. The wait will be worth it-just hang in there!
