    Local pet store

    I stopped in a pet store yesterday while working. It's in Hazlet NJ, and they usually have nice fish, which is why i go in there. They do have a small reptile area, which is not really that great. Younger kids working in there, which is not an excuse but they seem to hang out more then clean. I can understand that. Sort of! Anyway, i just take a peek in one of the displays and on the glass i see Pin-Stripe! im like what?

    i take a closer look! and yep there is a normal, a pin, and a albino red tail boa in the same tank!

    i read the sign a little closer and it says, red tail 699.00 Pin 699.00 normal 89.99 .... all locally bred!


    this is my first time seeing morphs in a pet store. i have heard of pastels making it to the pet stores, but now Pins! and Albino redtails! all three snakes were pretty good looking too. besides the filthy tank, and all three in the same tank!

    That's crazy. You would thik that they would at least get a separate enclosure for the boa. I have a mom and pops reptile store a few miles from me that has had a mojave ball for sale for months, but it is a reptile store.
    What are these mojavas I keep hearing so much about?

    Wow, yeah I've never seen anything like that before (well I've seen the having snakes piled on top of each other like idiots but not the morphs). I think the best thing I saw in a pet store was a pastel like you said but it was a really dirty looking one and would never have looked that good all growed up lol. Plus they wanted like $500 for it.
