I Hate Petco And Related Stores R Ballpython

I Hate Petco And Related Stores R Ballpython Went into petco because i needed bedding and didn’t have gas to drive an hour to my preferred pet store. they were housing not two but three ball pythons in the same maybe 15 gallon enclosure. locked post. Well i think that’s kind of tricky, because i don’t know for sure but i feel like at least 50% of new bp owners are impulse buyers that haven’t done any research and if your buying a snake from petco 9 10 it’s an impulse buy and it almost makes it feel like your buying a product or object instead of an animal so the kid that doesn’t.

Petco Prides Themselves On Pet Health Being Their Number 1 Priority 40 When i went up to the tank, i noticed a multitude of things that were not okay; 1. one snake had a wound on it's head so bad that you could see it's skull. 2. i counted at least 7 snakes in a tank the size of a 20l tank. 3. they were infested with mites. 4. there was no water in the water dish. I didn’t know much about ball pythons, snakes, or reptiles in general before getting my bp just over a year ago. knowing what i know now, i would have found a breeder. in doing so i would have supported a better source of animals, and saved some money. but my bp came from petco. fortunately, she’s been healthy, and a mostly consistent feeder. In captivity, ball pythons do well on a steady diet of mice and rats. as a general rule, you can feed your pet snake about once a week. babies and juveniles should be fed appropriately sized mice, just slightly wider than the snake’s mid body area. larger adult specimens can be fed full grown mice or medium sized rats. I just realized how overpriced petco petsmart is discussion. so i was getting decor for my tank and at micheals they have super high quality and realistic plants for only 5$, but then i went to petco petsmart and they were selling worse quality fake plants which were smaller for 17$ labeled as "reptile decore". anyways it blew my mind.
