Rate petco! 1-10

I never knew my local petco was such a bad place to go, intel i saw the inclosers of the ball pythons.

My local Petco is very nice. It's all college students, but it seems they only hire people who are in to animals. The woman that handles our reptile section breeds ball pythons. The fish tanks seem clean as well, I have seen a few things that bothered me. However, speaking with the manager resolved all concerns I had immediately. We use them for a lot of our pet needs, but if they were to slip we would pull our support immediately.

most chain pet stores take bad care of their animals. The up side for petco is they have good prices on supplies... (cheaper than petsmart even when ordered offline WITH shipping) and they always have online sales.

Unfortunatley there are no small name pet stores around where I live besides Petland and theyre still a chain...

The petco near me had very experienced people in charge of the marine fish and reptile areas. But all the petcos near me shut down like over 5 years ago. There can be a benefit to uninformed petcos however. I found a pretty expensive watanabe angelfish that shipped to a petco and it was mislabled as a twenty dollar swallow tail. That was a score!

The petco here is just decent. The people they hire know nothing so I don't even talk to them. I think they like it best that way because I pissed one off one time about giving advice to someone.

yep, definitively. it must be "old thread resurrection month".

When in Rome ...

The Petco near me does fairly well with baseline education of reptiles. Very terrible with invertebrates though. However their exotic creatures are not treated to my expectation as a keeper. But they are a business...

All things considered... I'd give them a 5 or 6 overall.

They don't call it death co for no reason.

The Petco near me is horrible. I have seen green iguanas that can barley open their eyes. I was gonna buy my BP from there. But, good thing they were in shed so I couldn't get one.
