I really don't mean to get into a petstore chain bashing here,
Although I live in NH and the store here
is also very poor, I don't know if they don't
train the employess correctly or just do not care. Last time
I went in there was a dead "skeletal" bearded dragon,
I told the person who worked in the herp area and they said well "it must of just happened"
It is fustrating to me to meet so many people here
that care very much about not only their pets but
animals in general, and to have a pet store
chain that is merely out for money and not
the welfare of the pets they sell.
Things like this really anger me.

: To say the least, I was not impressed. There were 2 half dead baby iggys left. The humidity gage was broken unless the humidity can really read zero. They had bark litter and one heat rock which both were sitting on. There was very brown poop water and no food. The sign says to feed them greens and crickets. A book sold by the store says they eat spinach, broccoli, kale and carrots. This is as bad as I heard on the IML.
