I have bought two animals from here in the past and one of them (my first ever pet) was only alive for a few months, granted I was too young I didn't take care of him well. I bought a rat from here over a year ago and she's friendly and seemed like she was being taken care of.

Their animals here are not properly taken care of at all ... the birds are over crowded, the bunnies seem way too young and small, I don't know much about these but I so know about chinchillas, they are very specific creatures and the one I saw in there today not one thing was right about his environment. First, he was very stressed in this environment - very very loud, he wasn't covered so the bright lights were right on him when he shouldve been sleeping this time of day, and his cage was right out in the open for people to open his cage and touch him... he was clearly distressed tensly huddled in the back of his cage. Second, his cage was not suitable at all. First the entirely plastic cage is very dangerous if he decides to chew it (and he will!) the bedding has to be the worst.... the colorful paper bedding can be toxic if he eats it and the water bottle leaks into the bedding making it wet, when he sits in this he can get wet and if you know chinchillas this is very dangerous and can lead to infection and death if not corrected quick enough... I spoke to an employee - who I believe may have been an owner - about it and she didn't even seem to care. Kids keep coming up and poking at him ... I cannot express how badly I feel for this chinchilla and I hope he goes to someone knowledgeable about chinchillas or someone actually willing to learn. If I had the money and space I'd take him in a heartbeat but he's overpriced and I don't even have close to enough money in my account nor a spot to put him for quarantine from my chinchilla so she doesn't get sick if he happens to be.

Personable and willing to help, as usual. Not many small shops around anymore. I'd rather go small shop than large corporation. They also have a good variety.

What type of fish do they have under $10?

Heyfromkamryn | Aug 18, 2021
Heather Richardson | Aug 18, 2021

They have many fish under 10 dollars. Examine carefully and quarantine them before adding to your tank. Almost lost all my fish I've had for several years after I added a few new ones to my tank from there.

How many orandas(fancy Goldfish) should I put in a 10 gallon tank?

melody bishop | Aug 19, 2019
Charlie Adams | Aug 18, 2020

General rule of thumb is 1 gallon per inch of fish at the adult size. However goldfish need more filtration and/or space since they create more water pollution. 10 goldfish in a 10 gallon tank as suggested by Sylvia Turner would be a death sentence for the goldfish.
