    Re: Local Pet Store Not Taking Care of Their Snakes

    Please don't. If you do the animal will simply be replaced with another one. The only way any retailer will stop keeping animals incorrectly is when doing so adversely affects their bottom line. If you buy that animal then you are rewarding the store.

    What can I do? The employees there seem to hate their jobs (obviously, since they are't DOING their jobs).
    - Go back and take pictures of the conditions of the enclosures and snakes.
    - Write to the management to let them know that due to the horrid conditions you found, you not only would never purchase an animal from them, but you will no longer set foot in their shop and will refer people elsewhere for their pet-related purchases. Include the pictures.
    - Find a different source for feeders.
    - Leave negative reviews on Yelp, Manta, Google, etc.
