I worked at petco in college for a few months. Lets just say the reptiles had never looked better. When I got there the balls were way underfed, and pacman frogs were drying out, and a whole mess of other dumb obvious things. I actually force fed 3 of the baby balls for two months because they wouldn't eat (and shhhh yes i snuck in live feeders to try lol) I honestly didnt give a crap about petco policy because I figured nobody cares enough to look up proper care so why should I care enough to follow their rules. Not like I would h w anyways though haha but yeah I even left a protégé and have gone back a couple times to check. And on topic. Every now and then a few good snakes come through. I got a really nice Dinker female from there.
