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.
    Theyre just like chicks, but more colorful!

    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.

    Some employeds care some

    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.
