I see two sides of the picture. There is nothing wrong with this at a basic level if you are against killing things unnecessarily, or through cruelty. I do understand the position, however, that we should not buy at those stores as it supports a large number of stores to carry and abuse these animals if they keep selling - and to be honest, it is why i chose not to shop at those stores AT ALL. My female (and favorite leo) was rescued from a chain pet store in PA where i used to live so I cannot say I am sad she was purchased. However, she had a bad case of worms so i had to take her to the vet - SO - the message of getting a petco leo checked at a vet is VERY IMPORTANT. If I would not have purchased her she would have been abused to her death in that cage... It's a tough thing. Just be sure to quarantine and good luck!





>>I know were not supost to by leos at petco or petsmart, but this petco i went to took decent care of there animals. They just got 30 leos and were only 20.00 with pals card. So needless to say i bought one. Its a hypo tang jungle(i think). I can already sex it(a male). I couldn't beleive they had some high end leos. I mean some of them were awesome. They had regs,albinos,jungles,tangs etc. If i can figure out how to post a pic i'll show you guys. Bryan
