The Puffer Forum

Sorry but i don't exactly know how to spell it in English , it is a super market for pets ~ such as flower , bird ,fish , insect? , and all the things feed and keep by people ~
It is placed in GuangZhou , and i really love to go window-shopping there ~ and take photo ~ it take times for me to pose them all ~ cause i have many many ~
but sorry ...i do not know any English of them ..even in Chinese ~! haha , cause , i knew nothing about fish , only Life habits of GSP , learning about Disease treatment~

Here we go ~

oh , my photo is too big ~ i need to make them smaller smaller smaller ...

Well a new batch ~ i try to translate the name i know in English ~

oh ~ i will pose them day by day ~ till pose all of the photo i save in my computer ~ well ~ surely if the photo will take not too much space ~

i want to share the market here ~ what 's ur market like ~?

so ...it's late and cold here ~ i am freezing >_< good night ~ see u tomorrow ~

That's so cool! I wish we had places like that more common in the US lol. We really only have conventions here, which is similar, but much more limited in time and selection. For example, a puffer convention would consist of people coming together to show off all kinds of puffers, sell, or trade them. (if only such a convention existed *Sigh*) I've been to those before, but I'd really love to go to one fo those markets, I hear they are fairly common in asian countries. I would be in heaven exploring for hours, probably come back every day to see all the interesting animals haha. Thanks for sharing, nice pics.

I love it

Why is that bird wearing a leash?

PP you kill me! Out of all that you notice/wonder why the bird is wearing a leash lol, sorry but it's just so random it's funny . I suspect it's to prevent the bird from making an airborne escape. I have no idea why someone would leash a bird, or any animal for that matter, other then to keep it in place.
