The owner was smoking cigarettes in the store, which I had seen him do before. Then I watched him ash his cigarette into the bin of crickets. It was no accident, it was fully deliberate. I should have never gone back the first time I saw him smoking in there. The store is kind of cramped so there is no way that the creatures in the store can escape the smoke. This was a couple of years ago so I cannot say if the smoking is still occurring. I just feel bad knowing that my chameleon was eating ash dusted crickets. \nAnother issue I had was that they sell animals that are far to immature to be sold. I bought a baby rosy boa from them and took it to the vet. The vet was upset because it was not the legal size for sale, it was far too small and did not survive. They also had an entire batch of baby chameleons die because of employee laziness. I am surprised that this place has not been shut down due to their practices. I would not recommend them to anyone who owns an exotic pet or is looking for one. A good portion of the animals that they sell are animals that should not be owned as pets altogether."^^ . .
