I thought as much i buy some frozen and live from there but their livestock leaves a lot to be desired.
They have a white throat monitor in there that needs a good soak its a shame.
Their yellow pages add says a great day out for the family but as their shelves are half empty and what they do have is overpriced i`d be surprised if anyone would spend more than ten minutes there.

I've contacted the RSPCA a few times & reported neglect/cruelty & they've done nothing, more interested in being on the telly than anything else it seems.

Good job you contacted trading standards as well.

I'm just asking out of curiosity, why trading standards? I thought stuff like that should be reported to environmental health?

I went off this thread above,as I knew the RSPCA wouldn't friggin help, and no point speaking with the shop manager. Been there and wore the tshirt. All that results in is them covering up or euthanising the animal and getting rid of the evidence. So figured Trading Standards and the Licensing Dept at the council was the best bet. In the past I have gotten no where reporting cruelty and neglect cases within shops. After the phone call with Trading Standards today (they rang me) I voiced my concerns and told them what I do etc. Offered to help at no cost of themselves also. I explained how the RSPCA let the snake down etc and he agreed. Plus he claimed he has issues with animal welfare himself. So just maybe something ood will come out of this mess.

That's what I think too. The poor thing! Don't get me started on the WC issues also. It makes my blood boil.
