So you all know I am getting a Bearded Dragon soon. So I walked in the local pet store to see if they had any. They did, and to my horror, there were about ten hatclings cramped in a small critter keeper cage. The lady that showed them to me also said they were on calcium sand, which made me even more mad. That's all it was really, just a critter keeper with calcium sand and a small water dish (which didn't even have that much water in it.) I also found out that EVERY reptile in the store was being fed lettuce dusted in a calcium supplement, how pathetic is that!? And then, the lady asked me in an anxious tone, ''So are you buying one?'' No. I also overheard that lady talking to somebody in the store as I was leaving, lieing to them, ''No they're not fast....They MUST be kept on calcium sand....Yeah, all you really need to feed them is lettuce....''

I'm still shocked. The next time I go in that pet store, I'm going to educate them
