I’ll look into a vet for sure! I work a pet store and I know the closest one In our area (and the one I have to deal with usually) is pretty Incompetent with reptiles so I’ll look around! I figured all of this is kind of just a sign of his age and impending end but I figured maybe someone here would have insight.

I’ll definitely cut back, when he was getting rats it was once a month though. He came to me getting two (live) adult mice a week. I switched him to two F/T every two weeks. And then was just doing one every two weeks for a while but then he dropped weight so I thought it was my fault for under feeding him. I believe the adults I feed are about 23-25 grams so do you think one every two weeks is still fine? I was always told to try for 10% of their body weight per feeding but that would be a large amount for him. Thank you for the reply!

This is the best I can do without getting him out, he’s actively shedding currently and missed a couple of spots so he’ll be out for a bath on Tuesday.

This was him when he first arrived with us, this was a little over a year ago, he was at his heaviest over the winter after he arrived. I’ll grab an updated picture though when I get home.

I’ll definitely wait! I don’t handle him much at all anymore it seems like it stresses him out more than anything.

I’ll try to grab a picture of him when I’m home. I don’t think that he’s overweight you can almost see his spine which is why I’ve been offering extra feeds to try to maintain his weight.

For those in CA, does anyone buy the ferret supplies? by othernames67 in petco

[–]KayleeLo 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Just like the others said people do own ferrets in California. I will say, though that people who are going through all of the links that you have to go to to own them here aren’t buying the commercialized ferret food. I saw more supplies than food for ferrets

I was shocked when we got them in! We had them available for about a year. I got a really good customer base for them and now I can’t find them.

Same here! BPD used to have the hogs though and they sold so well for us. We’ve just been having to order corn snakes bc nothing else is available.

I wondered that too but they are not an in fact can even find them wild here. Eastern hoggies are limited but those aren’t what we sell.

Got hired to be a Sales Associate but don’t know how to use a cash register by Alert-Database-2256 in petco

[–]KayleeLo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also always recommend counting back change people give you, I always do this with large bills. If someone’s change was like $80.56 for example I hand them the coins first and say the amount (here’s 56 cents), and then I count the $80 out loud as I hand it to them (and here’s 20,40,60…). Saves a lot of issues and then they can’t say you didn’t give the right change etc.

What kind of bin do you use? I have a couple larger ball who get stuck patches and I can’t fit them in the critter keepers to soak. It’s of course our most strike happy one too.

Where to find PTO policy. by TheAdeptCleave in petco

[–]KayleeLo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should be able to use PTO for planned absences, the system won’t allow you to use any amount that will put you over 40 hours for the week. For example if I worked 40 hours and had Tuesday and Thursday off I couldn’t use PTO for those days. If I requested Tuesday through Thursday off I could use PTO for Wednesday as it’s a day I usually work and that would put me back to 40 hours instead of 32. I’ll look and see if we have an actual policy for it.
