Pet store leo

Today I went to a pet store, by no means a big store, it's more like a hallway than anything so not a lot of room for animals. Well, there was this one leopard gecko, a baby, about 1.5 inches long. He was just sitting in his water dish not moving around but you could tell was alive. Well, he was almost a skeleton, his head twice as wide as his body. My thoughts were that the crickets in there were much too big for him to kill and eat, they were about the length of his head. If it were not for my lack of funds and a place to keep him then I would have picked him up and nursed him back to health. Instead I informed the workers to feed him much smaller crickets, I hope he makes it.

It's usually not good to mention the name of the pet store, for legal purposes and such. But I've seen similar cases, my problem is by the time I bring them home, they've passed that point of no return. Hopefully the workers will take your advice.

I really hope someone will pick him up and give him a decent home.
