Default Animal House in Leeds..... Absolute Disgrace

Stressed Bearded Dragon with severely infected eye....

Probably from the horse food they use as bedding and food....

According to staff the management have refused to let them take the guy with the infected eye off display,

All the beardies were presenting signs of vitamin A deficiency and MBD, after speaking to a member of staff it turns out they don't eat ANY fruit and veg, though they're all adult, they just get mealies and crickets.

Here's what they were using for lighting, though it is about 4ft off the ground!....

One overweight pacman frog....

This leo's eyes were so swollen and damaged from the light it couldn't open them fully, it was being housed with two others, one a male that was about 15g bigger...

This cali king had lots of space, and about two weeks worth of poo!


Great day out for all the kids!


I'm reporting them to the council, and I hope some other people will do as well!
(PM me for the number to call)

It's not a shop, it's a ZOO / Animal House.

apparantly that beardie's eye's been like it for a few months, someone I know (and completely trust) was there a couple of months ago and overheard the staff (That beardie's got an infected eye, just leave it and it'll be fine)
