Now will I use my experience of over 20+ stores vs your 2-3 to show future herpers to stay away from these chains........Petsmart, Petco, Petland, etc. If someone can go to the stores you people work at and buy a pet power to them and good for them.
Have you reported any of those to RSPCA?...Didn't think so so please don't judge others by where they shop

on that note 3 days ago i went to Petco for the last few supplies i needed for my Female BP who will be here in about 2 weeks i went there and was asking a few questions about their BP's and the Girl working there (asked her out and got shot down ) said they had 2 male BP's in the back for sale i said lemme see them...
we walked to the back there in a 10 Gal tank they had two 2ft long male normals in one tank no hide box no water and both of them sitting directly on the glass on top of the heatpad i was like...*alsidfvjuasdlvbxzlbLubljdadvasdbvasdfbadfbdgbnnfb!!!11!1!!!!*....after a good 10 minute "how to" speech she said "I'm only doing what i was told" so i told her to rectify the situation or the RSPCA is gonna be here ASAP..so she asked what could be done i pointed out the mistakes she said go finish your shopping and I'll come find you so off i went
i bought a few things and walked around the store (just to note all their reptiles were in excellent condition)
the manager came and got me not the girl that i was originally complaining to and brought me to the back there they had two 20gal tanks both with a nice layer of bedding each with a heatpad a hide box and fresh water...long story short I'll be picking up my new Male BP in a week...(someone had dropped them off with RI so they were getting treated by the Vet) so not all stores are evil just the managers hire incompetent people (I applied before i left) so i hope that policy holds until they hire me >.> jkin
