"speak with our money"

Thats exactly it. Ive always found (and I am sure others have as well) that pet stores (especially chains) dont even have good prices, let alone quality animals. I would drive 45 minutes to buy dart frogs for 15-20 cheaper than in the pet store...most people would. Private breeders have better quality and better prices. What happens to them when their animals get emaciated or get respritory infections or fungus? They lose a significant investment....they dont just lose an animal. Support the people that deserve it. That is how change is brought. When people realize that its bad to patronize a business that so poorly takes care of its animals (as said before, most are probably already sick when received), other routes will be sought. just my 2 cents.
