Did more education at Petco

[Bogertophis]

Sounds like a great time, good on you!

Honest question...because Ive been asked to do this from Petco for some sort of reptile meet and greet day.....did you notice any changes from your retic in the store? As in, from the amount of rats and rabbits they sell? That would be one of my concerns while having the general public holding the animal but I guess if a retic was okay I shouldn't have any worries lol.

I've taken a snake to my local Petco's Reptile Rally "meet & greet" in the past several times (not a retic, but a large BCI & a 7' Florida rat snake, etc), they don't seem
to notice the scents of any potential prey in the store, they've always behaved perfectly, meeting strangers of all ages. Don't recall seeing a retic there, but someone
had a burm & various other snakes too. I've worried some about the chance of picking up mites from doing this though, so I don't always attend.
