Saved a retf from the petstore

Wow, I only ever go to Petsmart, and they have really nice set-ups for their reptiles. I actually get a lot of info from them...for their tree frogs, they have full-spec bulb for daytime and red for night... they always have crickets and water, and they're hard to see because they have so much foliage to hide in. And they never mix species. If they don't have a proper setup, they keep the critters in the back until their vivarium is ready. I've never seen a critter that needed rescuing from them.

On the other hand, I rescued 150 tadpoles from a jar that my ex was keeping and now they're flourishing....

I am very happy for you and your new additions, I'm sure they will flourish and be happy.

Every PetSmart I've been too took horrible care of their reptiles/amphibians. I have much better luck with PetCo around here - they actually care about the animals. The workers will even bring home sick ones that need a lot of care.

Both petsmart and petco around here are terrible with their animules. The toads were about the same size of the White's, but tneed totally different care :l.

I hate seeing arboreal and terrestrial amphibians housed the same....
