i walked into shop expecting to purchase some things for my bearded dragon . I was not greeted not one time . As i walked in it was the most foul smell and the uncleanliness was the most eye catching . As soon as i walk in a i notice a full grown monitor lizard in a 40 gallon tank where as he couldn’t even turn around . Than I continue on and i see bearded dragons in way too small tanks, tanks on the floor improperly husbandry and bearded dragons high in distress. Every beardie i looked at was stressed to the max. The bearded dragons didn’t even have a UVB light that they need to grow properly only a too small heat lamp that i’m sure wasn’t reaching correct temps. i couldn’t even continue looking throughout the store as i was disgusted by the so called care for these animals . I wouldn’t buy anything from this establishment and its unfortunate because these animals are being abused . I’ve included only a few photos i could stomach to take .
EXTREMELY knowledgeable and friendly staff!!! Great stock, hard to leave empty handed. Well-cared-for creatures and tons of options for both care items and critters themselves. Will be back ASAP to "grocery shop" for my scorp, exactly the kind of shop Gainesville needs to keep around.
The girl working here was very knowledgeable about all the reptiles. Gave us good advice on things we were looking for. All of the reptiles here appear to be very well taken care of and cared for. Nice selection of products too.
I know nothing about non mammal pets but my 6 year old is interested. We're not quite ready yet and still researching so we are educated and prepared. However, we enjoyed looking around and the staff were very knowledgeable and helpful. When we are ready to adopt a new pet, we will be back.
I FELL in ♡ with the Ratties. Will definitely be back. Compassionate folks who run the place. Friendly and knowledgeable! Thank you for the smiles!
Very knowledgeable, friendly, and willing to educate anyone about animals! We get all of our pets, feeders, tanks, and tank accessories from here. If they don't have what you need they can order it or let you know where else you can find it. We are constantly learning more about our reptiles and the best way to care for them (and bringing home more pets). Both stores are great and always fun to visit!
