Re: Idiots @ pets@home

They know nothing about fish either, I am always cringing at what I hear them telling people "leave the tank a few days before adding fish and buy some ammolock!, then you can add them"
I wish I could warn everyone about how to care for fish

Re: Idiots @ pets@home

They are awful they really are, my oh sister brought a beardy about a year ago now and after having it set up for a while i asked why it didn't have a uv light only to be told they didn't need one the next time we went round surprise surprise she had one, must have done some proper research, shows how much good working there does for you. i don't think they should sell live stock at all or at least train there staff properly

this is the difference between petshops and pets at home .... petshops ( the goodones have the training and do not sell animals like reptiles without the right set up )

Re: Idiots @ pets@home

I visit my local P@H on a fairly regular basis, not to buy anything (I get my dog food from the vet and my fishkeeping equipment online or from North Lakes aquatics), but out of curiosity.

My local store has just started to stock reptiles, of course it's fairly typical: young, emaciated Leopard geckos being kept on sand and bullsh!t (excuse me) recommendations from the staff.

I've sent countless anonymous e-mails of complaint to their customer services, and have received the same crappy responses from some business graduate in their marketing department claiming that animal welfare is of 'the utmost importance'.

please stop you can't give them brassicas, it sucks out the calcium in them
give him rocket and corriander, mine love grated carrot
give him lots and lots of calcium and full UV exposure - post a pic to me please, he might have MBD.it's ok you didn't know, as long as he has a UV bulb and extra calcium powder he should be fine but please PM me a pic so i can see if he has MBD. he should be ok but just in case.

Re: Idiots @ pets@home

SerpentsEye.... where are you getting your information from that cabbage is poisionous???

In the years I have kept reptiles, I have never heard that.

In fact, the staple veg of a beardies diet should be spring greens - which is essentially cabbage - because of the high calcium levels.

Spinach is what binds calcium.

And borderer, please don't worry about yours. No need to post any photo's.
