Do you have any pics from when you had it?

Well you won't believe me..He flew into me while I was having Staff practice and knocked himself out. (He was a baby) So I took him inside and took care of him..He must have liked me cause he never left. Even when I went outside with him he would fly and eat then come back.
He slept on a rod that I put in the corner of my room and draped some black fabric around the corner and top to block the light.
He (Batty) lived for 3 years. He was a Carolina brown bat about the size of your hand.
I don't have any pics of batty ( I was only 13 then)
Good thing about having a bat as a pet...No bugs in the house, he ate them all..That is the real reason my folks let me keep him.
I miss Batty..He was a good friend.
