Hi, I'm Jessica and I'm here for expertvillage.com and I'm here to talk to you today about great family pets here at the Pet Stop in Rancho Cucamonga, California. For somebody who has a more exotic test if you are interested in snakes or reptiles you know those are always good to. There is something that once you get them there lighting is set. They are really not high maintenance as long as you feed them the right kind of food and make sure that they have proper water. They are definitely as attention seeking as the cat or a dog. Most snakes eat mice and start from little baby mice and can move on up from there. Rats even and even rabbits and stuff like that sometimes. Turtles are another good example for a pet. For people who have allergies or just don't want to have to deal with the hare or anything like that. They want something that is going to stay inside there cage. You want to make sure that you get a least in California the legal size is 4 inches wide in diameter and you want to make sure that you do that. You want to buy it from somewhere that is going to let you know what kind of filtration and all the proper techniques to take care of a turtle. It can be kind of tricky and it could actually be unsafe sometimes if you don't take care of them improperly.
