*WARNING!!! LOTS OF TEXT! LOL*
First note that I DID NOT buy my corn from them lol. Okay, I went to PetCo the other day to get some supplies for my new corn. (I had the tank but needed everything else) I found a good priced *off brand heat mat for $7 and was very pleased. However, when I walked up to the person who works in the REPTILE dept. of the store I asked if they also had any thermostats or rheostats in stock.
He replies, "Oh, of course we do!" and walks me over to the thermoMETERS... being somewhat polite I said, "Oh, no. Not thermometers, I need a thermoSTAT to control the heat of this heating pad."
And just GUESS what he says???:bang: "You don't need any of that for heat mats! These ones Have a limiter inside them so that they don't get too hot for your corn snake." I about flipped.
And not only that, but they had two corns and a Cal. Kingsnake TOGETHER in a rather small enclosure AND were feeding them crickets... now, am I just dumb or is literally EVERYTHING that he said/did completely wrong?!:angry01:
