If it's not being cared for properly then tell them. Don't buy something because you feel sorry for it. If it's not being kept properly then there could be other issues which may mean you inherit future vet bills.

Whatever place it is might listen...they might not.

I wouldn't worry about being banned from the place, if you're right and they can't keep animals correctly then it's not a place you should spend your money in my opinion.

Rightly said...I've been to an "exoctics" shop where they knew jack sh*t about the quite large number of snakes they were selling, I actually bought one and ranted on until they slung me out of the shop...no hatch date, no feed or shed records etc....!
