This store has really gone downhill the past few years too. The last two guys that both kept reptiles but were either let go or quit. I've even brought it to the attention to them that both ball pythons and the boas needed soaked instead of this spray the vet told them to use. I heard a rumor that they could care less of the quality of care their animals and was all about sales.

Made me very mad, I about asked an employee if they knew of it's condition but decided to leave since I knew I would not be able to keep my cool.

And on a funny note:
I had a lady (costumer, not employee) in petco tell me one time that she used to own a thirteen foot BP and that she always slept with it. I just smiled and nodded....

Again at petco, I got into an argument with one of the employees that I made friends with about weather or not they used to sell day geckos (they did, unles they used to have some other green lizard with reddish spots labeled "Day Gecko! ). I think she thought they were green anoles!
