Something for ALL new small animal owners to consider.
Before you go out to a pet shop to buy your animal, take 5 minutes to read this link
Why not use pet shops? It is also something that reptile keepers should consider I think if they don't breed their own food. Do you really know where your snakes food comes from? Is there any chance this could be made a sticky (If it is popular enouigh) to let new owners know? Peace Akai-Chan

re: Something for ALL new small animal owners to consider.
Execllent link thanks. What a lot do not realise is that a lot of the small animals in our larger pet shops have been imported from breeders like that in other countries where there are literally no animal welfare standards and by purchasing them, owners are encouraging the continuing trade.

 I just want to spread the word to as many people as possible, and seeing as a lot of people come here before they get a pet it could be good to be made a sticky. Peace Akai-Chan

re: Something for ALL new small animal owners to consider.
Yes it should be made a sticky!
 I would go to a specific breeder, but there are none around me!  But I did venture across one of the 2 petshops in my town (very small town!!) and one is a breeder! and they make sure you have everything ready before allowing you to adopt and they tell you different treats and toys that are good for them, and they also rescue animals from people who don't want them anymore.. So if they close down I'd have to go to a normal petshop or go animalless

Re: Something for ALL new small animal owners to consider.
Great thread
I've heard that some of those pics (i've seen them before somewhere) are rodent farms for P@H
