On another one of my threads, i mentioned how i walked into the pet shop by me where i usually buy all my rodents and asked the manager who was helping customers if she has gotten her order of feeder kittens in yet as i need about 3. One of the customers just gave me this blank stare lol. The manager laughed and had to let the customers know i was just kidding. I guess another of her customers did that but asked if they got their shipment of feeder parakeets in when there was a lot of customers in there. The customers all asked if this pet shop really sells parakeets as feeders. It's so fun getting people all worked up lol.

Though, one time i was there, they had the most gorgeous banana bp. Caught me way off guard. Thing was decent size and on sale, probably because it wasnt selling. Such a shame.

we don't sell by individual morph. They are three groups. Normals, advanced and unusual. Three price points. No more no less.

Seriously if you have Petco questions just ask. I will answer.

One shop had deaths door fish and then one a mile away had great stuff. M


It delends on tne managers and employees. I’d never buy one but people do.

Some employeds care some
could care less. It’s like that anywhere.

I know why these places get a bad wrap but at times do feel bad for the folks there who care and try and earn a living.

they are like a puppy mill but with snakes. They are mass produced, come to us small, and sometimes messed up. My Odyn was one of them. I wish Petco would reach out to reputable breeders and only order as necessary. I'm happy BPs are not available right now to even get. Grrrrr, just grrrr to them.
