There's one pet store in town here that is just god awful. I cant even look at the poor creatures and I haven't been back. I was at PetSmart the other day and the enclosures are soo tiny they make me sick. They had baby Chinese water dragons and they were so tiny I couldn't believe that they were even big enough to sell! I had to look away. But its unreal though their reptile SUPPLIES are really huge~~they have a lot more stuff then ever before I just wish that they would USE them. How bad could it be to USE the big enclosures?? Sorry about my spelling but when I get mad its horrible LOL

**It's OK... I used spellcheck on it! ~SurvivorSteph

Thats the store I go to the most (although its in Perry Hall BTW). Their herps are doing very well, although I have noticed their fish tanks aren't so hot any more... Maybe they should stick to herps!

They are my emergency cricket supplier, although I have finally gotten a pattern down where I haven't run out in a while.

I think their prices are a bit expensive though. $50 for a Red Eye Tree Frog vs $30 at the shows. Most of their supplies are a tad higher than any other place as well.

Stay away from Afishionado in White Marsh. They scare me.

There is the Aquarium Center out past Northwest Hospital on Liberty Rd, its not to bad.

Matt I agree, Today's Pet is HORRIBLE! I can't even go in there anymore...

Yes, thats a nice store and have good fish as well as good herps. Its a bit of a drive for me though.

I need to make it down to Wet Pet & Reptile Center, in Essex, MD. Haven't ventured to that one yet. Sometimes work swings me to that side of the beltway, so one of these days...

I've also been thinking about designing business cards to pass out. Here's a suggestion though... if you're planning to design a card for everyone to choose from, use an Avery template for Word (Business Card Templates) be sure to mention which style it's for. This will make it easier for others to download your cards and get consistent results-- making HCN look GREAT!

As for pet stores, I totally interrupted a store employee talking to a sulcata owner, gave him some diet, lighting, and general care advice... of course I referred him here!

Hey, Rich, Steph, could we put these business cards in their own thread? I would love to pitch in (when I have some time), but I'll never remember they were in this one.
