Yes it is from a breeder - in Yorkshire (gotta travel a bit lol). I'll be spending the day there going through care advice, bathing, feeding etc - everything i need to know which i may not already to ensure i can care for it properly (and for her peace of mind that i'll be suitable to own it).
She is also providing a table top enclosure (as i have set up the outdoor enclosure for summer but also needed an indoor enclosure) it is a Hermanns and i have choice of 2
