Alright, so Inuleki and I were at the mall yesterday, and we went into the horrible mall petshop. We decided to check on the Roseys (because it's a horrible mall pet shop, they normally only carry Gramm. roseas.) I look into the cage next to the Rosey, and see an Usambara on the wall! I sent Inuleki to investigate if the kids at the counter know what they have here, and they say they do. So I inquired about price. $29.99. I gave Inuleki the puppydog eyes, and he said maybe. 
Well, we went back today and got her! The thing that got me, was the kid opened the cage, stuck his hand in there, and grabbed her! I'm thinking to myself, "Great! This guy is going to get tagged by this 4 1/2" Usambara and it's my fault." But, amazingly, she didn't bite him. Actually, she crawled all over him and onto his back. He asked for some help, so I touched her back legs and she started walking up and onto his shoulder. She moved VERY fast, but never once made an attempt to bite. He held onto her for a good ten minutes! I was shocked! A semi-handlable OBT??? I had to buy her at tht point!
We just got her home and are getting her Pet Pal set up. She is probably flipped out from the car ride, so we are going to do this Forceps, but in a few weeks, I'm going to get her into the bathroom with a towel stuffed under the door, and see if I can't coax her onto my hand from the ground with a paintbrush. I would NEVER try this with ANY OTHER Usambara, not even my demon slings. But she's pretty chill.
Happy Girl, had to share!=D
