Pop Pop

So there's this large cage we have on one of our reptile endcaps that we haven't used in ages.
As a while back the manager was looking to possibly take out one of our endcaps because the cages weren't being used in that section and instructed me to try and put all our reptiles into one section as proof we only needed one. (We ended up getting a ton of reptiles after that point so we do need the cages now) 

And until now, we didn't need to use this larger cage....but we got in a couple of Chinese water dragons that were larger than normal. So they needed a bigger cage.

But they couldn't be in this big lidless cage because they could potentially get out.
Which meant that I needed to move our tortoises into them (as it doesn't matter if there is no lid and this cage was used for them in the past) so that I could put the Chinese Water Dragons in their other cage. 

So I pull open this old cage that we haven't used since like....maybe Christmas time? Maybe before that point.

And something shatters at my feet.

Like it sounded like something broke. And was loud enough that the manager a few feet away heard it and was like "What broke!?"

But when I looked down there wasn't anything immediately visible.

What broke?

Well.
Apparently at some point, someone had placed one of those street poppers.
You know the little white raisin looking fireworks that you throw on the ground and they make a 'pop' sound?

Yah. At some point someone had placed one in the lip of the thing holding the cage in place. 
So when I pulled the cage out.
This little pop firework fell out.
And popped.

*shakes head*

At least nothing actually broke.
