Our first visit to this store was awesome! My husband, daughter, and I were in the area at a nearby business when my daughter saw this store and asked if we could look around. When we went inside, they had just fed the reptiles, so they were all pretty active and we were able to see a lot of them. My daughter fell in love with a bearded dragon named Frank, and if we had the room, he would have came home with us. He was so cute and interacted with my daughter a lot!
My husband and I were looking at the different types of frogs and thought they looked so cool! The male employee there told us that the frogs were actually pretty easy to take care of, so my husband and I started talking about getting some since we already had the perfect setup for them.
When we came back the next day to get some frogs, the employee was in the back with some people and didn't seem very happy about us being there. While my daughter talked to Frank, I was picking out which frogs we wanted to purchase. While I was doing that, my husband saw the employee with a little snake. When he got excited and mentioned the snake, she quickly turned around and put it away. Then he asked her how big the Caribena Versicolor (Antilles Pinktoe Tarantula) usually gets, but she gave him a short answer saying all tarantulas are the same size.
We wanted to buy frogs (and we were interested in the tarantula), but we won't buy them from here. The male employee was so kind (I wish I knew his name), but the female employee (Jackie?) wasn't very kind to us at all and I'm not sure why.
I will say that it seems like they care about the reptiles and take good care of them. It's just the one employee who wasn't kind to us that makes us not want to support this business. Hopefully others have a better experience though. read more
