Nothing makes me angrier...

All you can do is:
- Complain to management,
- Complain to animal control,
- Leave bad reviews on Yelp, Google, etc.
- Never set foot in the store again.

Sadder still that people sell to the big box stores knowing that the animals are kept in crappy conditions.

Almost everytime I go to petco the humidity in the tanks are like 10 or 20% and 80% of the snakes look horrible and stuck shed all over the place. Sad and just STUPID, it really is

I just moved to Iowa. What part of the state/store? I don't want to give them my business if they are mistreating animals that bad.

It was the Des Moines store. All but 1 bp looked extremely thin.. There was maybe 2 employee in the store when i was there. Horrible service

All the more reason to buy your animals from a breeder.

I hoped you reported this to petco corporate. Here on long island all pet stores are inspected twice a year, and in my county animal control is very quick to respond to complaints. You need to take the photos and video to your nearest animal control. Here all petcos are given surprise inspections by the area manager monthly, and my daughter says she is really picky on the way the aninals are kept, and their condition. The petco you went to is only as good as the area manager is. So don't give up. If you get no satisfaction from petco corporate then go to the local animal control.

If this one was to get inspected an seen the condition of these snakes heads would roll. I have contacted animal contr an forwarded them pics an video I have also sent an email to petco corporate also containing pics an video as well as asking them to pull security video to see how long I was in the reptile area an never received help an even after telling cashier I needed help it took another 10 mins for manager to show up from outta the back room 20 ft away

*Update* I received a phone call and email back from Petco Corporate they sounded genuinely concerned an asked me to forward the pics an video to them an ensured me they were gonna look into the matter heavily.
