Man, I’ve got a petco story to share when I get home , they should be closed to selling anything reptile related, let’s just put it that way.

No shame in not knowing. Everyone has to learn at some point :-)

Because they just do what they’re told by corporate . They see the animals (most of them, some have a real passion for them) as something on the shelf at like Walmart. They stick new hires wherever they need them, including reptiles, not knowing a thing about them. They have to go by what corporate tells them to do, including ordering and layout, etc. anytime you buy one from them , you do more harm then good because they see it as a sell , and just order more, and they order from what are essentially puppy mills for reptiles. I believe petsmart and petco both use macs reptiles out of Ohio (if I recall) whom order from over seas. What gets here is just a fraction of a shipment.
