Get This

[nathaniel]

I was at a pet store today who had 2 tree boa's in a enclosure. They were terribly thin even for a tree boa's standard. Not much water for them and little humidity. Next to that there was a berm a retic and a ball all being stored in one enclosure I feel so bad for all of these snakes.

I am thinking about going and buying some of the snakes to ensure they live out life nicely. And not how they were being treated.

The sad truth is , if you buy it will encourage them to put even more in the same or worse conditions. If he makes money at it many more could suffer in the long run. I know it sounds heartless to leave them, but you should. There is nothing that says you can't report him for neglect though.

Have you talked to the owners about the snakes' living conditions?? I am not taking up for them but it could be that they are just terribly ignorant.
Maybe go online and print out some caresheets of the animals that they have in there and take them to the store. You never know, they might just listen. After you have done this, and they still refuse to change the conditions, report them.
