[QUOTE="Thistles, post: 60139, member: 3949"] Having worked for PetSmart I can say that that is against store policy. They want them kept on eco earth, aka coco fiber. They don't exactly live on that, either. They're supposed to be in a small kritter keeper with a water dish and a sponge on eco earth and fed 1 cricket 3 time weekly. They are sold in the enclosure so no one has to even open it. The manager has no say - the standards are passed down from corporate and dictated by their vets. I used to just ignore them and remove the sponge and add a hide. When I had an inspection I'd put the sponge back in for a few hours. [/QUOTE]
