Awful reptile conditions in Eastbourne!!!
Well,we have just arrived back from a visit to a reptile shop in Eastbourne(I wont name for obvious reasons,but anyone wishing to know can PM me)and rarely have I seen such poor conditions in a shop!
Pair of Taiwan Beauties in a 3x2 viv(adults!) one of which has obvious mouth rot,various others in vivs with mats & no stats,naked bulbs,dirty filthy water bowls,the lot.Worst of all a baby albino burm in a dreadfull state,kept FAR too dry,and obviously recently fed a prey item way way too big. Rant over,but honestly I am shocked,and I have seen some dreadful shops ion my time,this is well within the top 5.

The really scary thing is that that sounds like the 4 seasons compared to some rep shops you go in

I suggest you take some action. Moaning on here really wont help mate!
Put your concerns into a letter, send it to the RSPCA and local council. At least then you have done your bit to help and its out of your hands  Gary

Cant do a thing until tomorrow obviously,but plans are already in place.They won't,however,include anything to do with the RSPCA if I can help it,I want to help the animals not have them destroyed.Moaning on here will help though,it will help tell far more people about this shop and allow people the chance to,if nothing else,avoid a wasted journey.
