that table is only a 3ft x 2ft and he/she will weigh around 2200 grams and be as big as 12inches as an adult, the table would do him maybe a couple of years at a push depending on how fast he grows and how good his diet is. I think the only place for them is in the garden and even the baby will go outside on the next sunny day, we are in the process of building a small run which is escape proof as all my other have a side garden, he may even go outside today if its done. I can't and won't keep more than four not because we don't have the room but the house goes with hubbies job and I'd never have more than we can take if we had to move, they were bred to sell and the money will go back towards the keep of the many animals/birds we have, I just hope they go to good homes.

Ah, I understand completely. It's a very wise person who could look to the future and plan for something that may not happen when faced with such amazing cuteness

Well done you for being sensible and preventing yourself having the heartbreak of maybe having to rehome after you've grown so much more attached
