I live 30 minuetes from his shop. I know exactly what you are talking about. He has been shut down many many times everyone knows bruce. His snake bites and his degree in herpetology and his poss. hets. His shop is horrid! I have seen rats in the same tank eating about four other rats. Multiple sheds and defecations from multiple different animals in the same tank. Nobody has water EVER. I've seen his freezer full of 10 gtp neo's as well as pastel bp's. I have also seen him sell a rattlesnake to a 15 year old boy. I have also been and seen him let customers free handle cobras in his shop. I have seen "elvis" his king cobra's cage open before and him not even know it. I think the worst of all is that poor alligator snapper that's in a trough with rusty water that has about 1 in on each side of him. This guy needs to be shut down for good. They either tell him to clean it up or move and he just moves to another state. Oh yea I remember the dead emperior scorpions in the tank that was there 6 months later when I went back to the shop. Also the decayed burmese in the tank that was almost to the bone with skin hanging off... I think I should run down there next week and get some pictures of his shop for everyone and post them on every forum across the nation. It's about as sad as it gets. Everyone will ask me if it's so bad why do you go back? Well everyone who knows me or brittany we have a soft spot for the animals in his store. For us it's a rescue... and we usually show up every 6 months and save a animal, a inexspensive one but we feel it's something we should do. We have went in and got a red-eared slider that you couldn't find in a 10 gallon tank gave it a bath and took it to a near-by-pond with some others and I still keep a check on it to this day. He's doing great just something we enjoy. I know everyone didn't want to lissten to me ramble about bruce and but if your still reading by this point thanks!
