I got this pinky from a big chain pet shop so my question is should I be buying Plutos food from the big chains or local pet stores? Or does it make no difference and maybe this was just a one-off?

Every pinky in every store started out really small and got/would have gotten larger and larger until it was/would have been a fuzzy. They could be any size in any store. If the pinkies are too small, ask for larger ones. If they don't have them, go somewhere else, or feed two at a time.
But, personally, I always support the local stores when I can.
