Well, maybe with only four reptiles at least they are getting treated well, which is more than I can say for 99.9% of stores that carry a bigger selection.

Typically they only get males of the morphs because they are able to set their costs with who they are buying them from (kinda like Home Depot) so the breeders are holding back their females and shipping them males.

most definitely. if these giant pet chains start selling morphs in quantity at a lot lower prices due to low quality and the fact that they (usually) don't keep the husbandry on point... it could cause the prices to be diluted for specialty breeders who are producing quality animals with proper husbandry - when it comes to people new to the game they usually HAVE to buy their morphs from a breeder since a pet store usually doesn't have them... but if they are starting to carry them... who knows that that will do ...??
