    Just checked out a reptile shop

    There is this reptile shop about 10 minutes from me and I went to check it out because I have heard bad rumors about it. It smelled, but that is always going to be the case when you have a lot of rodents. They had hamsters and rabbits out in the open. Probably had the rats and mice in the back. It was SOOOOO small! They had NO products to buy. All they had were a couple snakes and lizards. They did have enclosures for sale though. They have a lot of feeders including dubia roaches which I loved because I feed those to my tarantulas! I will be buying my feeders there but nothing else. lol They had about 5-7 carpet pythons in one enclosure with the bulbs exposed and one of the pythons was nearly touching it. Scary stuff. But yeah it wasn't too terrible...just super small. I like LLL Reptile much better but that's a lot further away.

    Yeah, that would definitely make me not want to do business with them. If they have more stock then they can handle, either upgrade to a new facility or don't buy so much stock, ya know? It's not rocket science!

    Also, can you please list the name, address and phone of this business? It sounds like you are writing a review of this place but I have no idea what or where it is. Thanks!

    Yeah it kind of made me not want to buy anything from them either but I need to buy my feeders some where.

    Here is their website:
