I'm currently attending SUNY Plattsburgh as a Biology major with a pre-vet focus and I recently grabbed a part-time job at a local pet store, Northern Puppies. The owner, Tammy Staley, has been breeding and selling puppipes for year but within the last year started her pet store. Now she is also doing a lot with exotics, like reptiles, sugar gliders, hedgies, chins, parrots, etc. I am actually in charge of the reptile portion of the store. It's nothing huge now, about 18 tanks of reptiles, though we will be doubling that when we move in February. I just wanted to put it out there that I am trying to make this a great place to buy healthy reptiles with great customer service. I am in the process of getting a wholesale account set up with Ben Siegel Reptiles.
If you guys have any suggestions as to what you would like to see when you walk into a petstore with reptiles or exotics, as far as supplies, the species available or just any comment you have, please let me know. I just started and have been contiuouly making changes, but all suggestions are welcome. Also if anyone is the the area feel free to stop by!
