I’ve always had an affinity for exotic pets and my dream is to own an exotic pet store and rescue poorly treated animals. Does anyone know how to go about setting up my own shop? Do I need any permits, licenses, certifications, etc? And if so how do I get them?

I heard that pet store mice are also sold for snake food so they aren’t as good. I don’t know if I should believe them. Are fancy mice more expensive? Are they bigger? do they have a better temperament? Mom wants to get the one at the store because their only 50 cents and i don’t see any fancy mice. which one is a better pet? are there any other differences? please contribute if you know!

I don’t have time to go to town today and buy dried crickets. I need to buy something for the weekend for my pond turtle. Besides lettuce, what can I get her from the grocery store. She likes dried shrimp from the pet store..Will baby frozen shrimp work?
