View Poll Results: Worst chain pet store for reptiles?
Petco and petsmart are the only two chain pet stores around here.
And they both suck. The only thing petco has going for it around here is Saturday is adoption day, and the local shelters bring in cats and dogs for adoption. Aside from that all of the supplies are over priced, the animal selection is slim. (Except for fish) And the staff are poorly trained. (Except in the fish department.) $7.00 for a large rat? Are they out of their minds?

This is why i go to a owner operate pet store. I do get my Reptile Bark at Petsmart, because i save almost $10.00 on the big bags.

I guess you've had different luck than me. Most the fish departments at our petcos BLOW compared to some online sources and even the aquatic specialists often haven't a clue about anything. I guess it just really varies on the particular store, some might get lucky and have someone with a clue.
