Pet Supermarket...WOW!

[TanyaL]

while i cant speak for their reptiles, i know i wasnt too impressed with their selection and temperament of the birds we saw at pet supermarket. Its possible that my store is one of there "lame duck" stores. But i do know that the store itself is very clean, and everyhitng is organized nicely

My son was petting some of the birds and one of them did strike at him...but that was one of many. All the others were fine.

I loathe that store, and its chains.. they don't teach their employees how to properly care for the animals. The enclosures are ususally too small for any animal.
I saved these two ball's from the one near me for free after talking to the manager/co owner. They were CH, and still not shed their hatching shed. PLUS had never eaten for them.


I got this updated photo last week of one of them that I rehomed.

Now the store near you may be the rare exception. I hope so.

Just as I thought...too good to be true for it to a company wide policy to care for their animals. I'm glad you were able to rescue the poor little guys and give them a chance at life. hats off to you!

Tanya where was this place? I'm always on the lookout for pet shops in central FL.

If you are in Orlando it would be a good 2+ hour drive for you since it's in Pasco County...somewhere. We were all over the place today so I don't remember exactly where it was. If you took 50 all the way over and then headed south on US 19 you would eventually run into it.

When we were first looking into getting a snake we found a petshop in Ocala that seems to be pretty good and knowledgeable but found out shortly after that they closed down. In fact, that was the only pet shop I've been in since looking for a snake that had a dark room for their reptiles. It was too bad that they closed!
