I was at this store earlier this afternoon and was showing my 16 month old the store. We reached the reptile and fish area and on the counter where the Betas, sink, and most fish supplies are located was a plastic container with a baby Ball Python inside. I am skilled in the reptile world and automatically knew the snake was in its feeding container. I knew this snake was about to go eat or just got done eating. After looking in the disgusting fish department which had cloudy water in every tank, along with dead fish and plenty of species that did not belong together, an employee came up to the sink with a live mouse a dropped it in the snake's container and walked away. The habitat created for all the crickets (egg crates) was out all over the floor and dead crickets were everywhere. You could smell the dead crickets. When I saw the snake with the mouse I told everyone in the nearby area to leave NOW. I did not want any children to see the 45 minute ""circle of life"" episode that was about to start.
