I went to a local Pet Store today, as I was in the store next to it, and although I have stayed out of it for years, because of 'gee, can you guess why?" I Had to.
Boy was I in for a shocker! All the nasty aquariums were replaced with very clean larger, new filter,ones. Not a floater in sight. The small critters, like lizards etc, were all moved into a much nicer,more accessible area. They had a young RF in a super deep bedding, looked positively inviting, a hide, (Which they had normally refrained from, customers cannot buy what they don't see.) A ramp type bowl deep, clean full of water, food that looked like maybe mazuri with some greens.(199.00) I was pleasantly in shock.Baby Uro Mastics, never saw them before, (189.00) Pac man frogs (39.00) The frogs were all in a planted, moist vivariums.Large tree frog, I thought it was such a beautiful happy looking creature, I almost,,,, (24.99)Snakes had hides and water. They had a pond with RES and painted turtles, with a filter, plenty of basking areas. It just was nice. So after all I rant about Pet stores, I thought I would throw out a positive note.If I had a phone that took pics I would have.
Hope all fared OK after Sandy. Anyone hear from TerryO? She is the only one I know in NYC.
Nay
