yeah man i really hate bad pet stores. i have 2 pet stores blocks away from my house(about to get knocked out of buisness by the new and very responsible pet land at new mall ) the first one gets his crickets from the back yard of their store, they don't use substrate for any of their reptiles nor do they feed them properly because they only really care about their birds and chinchillas(and the chinchilla was in a cage the size of a ten gal tank man!!!!) but the birds have it made man handled every day they check homes for evaluation so atleast they are doing something right. i bought a red belleid adult newt from them that lived it last 4 years with me.

the other store only owns 2 kinds of reptiles but the way they keep one is horrible!!! they keep 18 baby iguanas in a 10 gal tank with no substrate and thet throw one ice berg lettuce leaf in a day(one was so sick i stole it and let my cousin nurse it bvack to health) i hate when some one harms an iggy just for the simmple fact that i had one from when i was 7 till i was 12. i had to give him away just because i had no room in my house. man i can't wait till the pet stores go out of buisness because of that excellent pet land. they have the besty set ups for all thier reptiles,rodents and birds, man the frogs are even kept in these huuuge tanks in the back room. it is like another store man!!!! sorry for the long post just feel ur anger at horrible pet stores!!!
