I find for the most part it's the opposite. Herpers don't like the local pet stores. I work in a pet store and breed herps. There are pet stores that I will shop at and won't shop at. Ones that I like and others that I will be very happy to see them closed down (due to lack of care). Where I work we have to give care sheets out with every sale. We also are not allowed to sell to minors, we are only allowed to buy captive bred and make sure the person knows what they are getting into, what they need and how long the animal will live. Of course the people I work for are only doing this to make money but honestly, as long as the animals are well taken care of, i don't care what there intentions are. Selling animals can be hard especially when you don't know who's buying them. I don't particullarily like working in a pet store but at least I can try to make a difference until my breeding gets me out of employee work



Yes, however there are pet stores who don't like herpers because we are 'know it alls' and when they don't care how badly there animals are taken care of they don't want you telling them.
