Pretty horrid experience there today, went in to look at geckos and the crested geckos had zero foliage in any enclosure and two had severe FLOPPY TAIL SYNDROME and the staff was clueless…they are clearly selling u unhealthy geckos and have no idea.The employee said the tails were like this from hanging upside down, and while that’s true, that is a very bad thing. View pictures.IMO the prices were way too high for some of the animals, but in actuality some of the animals shouldn’t even be for sale.Next I’ll add the entire place stunk like ammonia and was nauseating

Absolutely the best !!! I have been going to Wild Cargo for 15 years or more. Awesome salt and fresh water fish. And the reptile selection is par none. The whole family is involved and knowledgeable. All the animals get attention constantly so they are so docile and healthy. Absolutely 💯 recommend these fine people!!! I count them among my closest friends, certainly very special.SteveDaveAveryTiki Ranch

Definitely the coolest pet store we've seen!They have an impressive reptile and snakes with lots of tortoises and bearded dragons and other reptiles. They also have a lot of ferrets and rabbits and guinea pigs for adoption and axolotls and fish. And cute baby chickens! And lots of supplies for each.

I love wild cargo, the staff is very polite and helpful. The reptile room is always a must see even if you're not buying one. If you're looking for baby chicks they have them but not all the time call ahead if that's what you want. I've seen...fish, skinny pigs, guinea pigs rabbits and a few small birds there. I go for my small bird feed and fruit pellets they always have them.

We bought 2 snakes from here both covered in mites they told us it was “normal” and to do warm baths repeatedly until they are gone well, it’s now seven months later. We brought one back because She would not leave her water bowl because of how much of a lance these mites were and they credited us towards another snake which still costed more money but the other one now has sores all over from these mites relentlessly eating him. I wish I could get money back we spent hundreds of dollars literally and they won’t help with any solution the attitude is like oh well

Wow such an awesome pet shop and the staff is amazing 🤩 my 4 year old is obsessed with snakes 🐍 and I am highly afraid of them. Well the people here let my son see two real life snakes and told my son all about them! And made his whole day! He Has been talking about it for hours on hours. I tried to tip him and he refused … because he didn’t have to take the time out to do that and was so polite and respectful just a great store all the way around! Highly recommend

More than enough variety of any and everything you need when it comes to exotic animals. Obviously an establishment like this will have a smell to it which is the only reason why I did not provide 5 stars. Great place especially for live mice for snakes.

While most of the other pets looked healthy and well enough (I do not know much about the other pets) the Axolotls are kept in abysmal conditions! The babies, which are probably too young to be adopted, were placed on gravel that was just a bit smaller then their heads, so they could easily choke! I even watched one get a pebble stuck in it’s mouth and struggle to spit it out, all while his back half was floating. Secondly, the babies are all kept together in one tank, so most of them were missing at LEAST one leg or gill. Axolotls are great regenerators, but this is not always a guarantee and letting them attack each other should be avoided! Most appalling, I saw an axolotl stuck in the filter! I let the aquarium attendant know and he did not say a word to me, barely nudged her away with his fingers, and then walked away. Only for her to get immediately stuck again! The adults were on a smaller gravel, but definitely also something you do not want to keep with them as they will swallow it and die. The adults also had extremely small gills and overall looked very stressed, and it was like around 10 of them in a 20 gallon, which is the MINIMUM size for ONE adult axolotl!! Obviously they raised those adults so they have been living at least a year in such conditions! It makes me wonder if the other pets were as well taken care of as they looked. And the prices are more expensive then reputable axolotl breeders who take amazing care of their little babies. If you are looking for an axolotl, find a reputable breeder online and order through them. You’ll be spending near $100 or more here for an animal that probably will not last you long. I feel so bad for these poor axolotls! :(

We came in just to look at snakes and met Aaron who was extremely helpful and spent a lot of time answering all of our questions and we ended up getting our first snake! My 13 year old is so excited.

Aaron the owner is such a nice guy, answer a bunch of new owner ?s for me even though he could just send me to Google, but this is my go to reptile store for all my goods for my new veiled chameleon, he got me everything I needed for him except coming to my house to set it up haha (that's not included). So go here plus the prices are better than your big box name brand stores!!! #chamdad #chamsrock #TripECham #reptilelife

I was so disappointed when I bought a fish from here and should have waited on my boyfriend who knows way more about fish than I do but I was impatient and of course didn't and I definitely paid for it bc an employee was supposed to sell me a glow shark and I ended up with a red tail albino shark worth 4$ and I paid 20$ to be fooled.. pictures attached. Please inform your employees better bc I wasted money on a cheap fish. Now I 100% know and can SEE the difference haha.

LololAdding to my original review of the current part of the family running the place being idiots... Now I see they pay for 5 Star reviews. Sad what they've done to their fathers place.

My only reason was -1 star is because fish tank supplies were a bit higher priced than Petsmart, Petco, Amazon. Etc — However, their fish selection is awesome and the prices can’t be beat! The staff is super helpful as well.

Worst restaurant experience ever. They’ve got this Gandalf looking fella working at the take out window and he told me to shut up after I rang the service bell only 50 times. The menu is very limited and when they say “exotic” they mean it. I ordered one large rat and a side of 50 crickets. The rat was still alive, and not even cooked. And the crickets were bland. Needed salt. They do have a cool gift shop though it takes up most of the establishment. I ended up buying some sticks as a souvenir for my grandma out of state. She loves sticks. Anyway I will be back because their in house zoo is fun to look at and well maintained. 10/10 would recommend.

The ultimate pet store. The animal enclosures are all super clean and the animals are all healthy and vibrant. They have everything from snakes to chickens and all of the supplies to maintain them. The best part? The owner knows everything about every animal to set foot in an enclosure and how to make them happy and healthy, and he doesn’t mind taking you from the start to finish and make sure you have a good experience and the animals are well cared for you. Not a hint of being judge mental or rushed- he is kind and knowledgeable and a pleasure to do business with. This is about an hour away from me but I will be happy to make that trip to give him my future business.

Great store! Great people! Great experience! I highly recommend!If you want to purchase a new pet at an affordable price, I recommend Wild Cargo Pets located in West Palm Beach off of Military Trail. Their selection includes fish, reptiles, small animals, birds, poultry and even some exotics. Just be sure to call them first and tell them exactly what you’re looking for. Their staff is extremely knowledgeable, very friendly and helpful.

My boyfriend and I walked in Wild Cargo to look at their snakes as we are looking at add another Slytherin to the family. Upon looking at the looking at their ball pythons, their selection is great, however the husbandry is poor, they have no hiding spots and most had little to no water. There are adult corn snakes in small containers that they only had enough room to coil. Those containers also had wet substrate & poop which can cause respiratory issues. Their red tail boa had shed in their water bowl, which you could tell had been there for a while.I understand these enclosures are temporary housing for most of these animals, but they should definitely be held to a higher, more hygienic standard.

At work we came across and rescued a beautiful Dutch rabbit. We all knew this wasn't your typical wild rabbit but someones pet that was recklessly abanded. After that three weeks later she had 9 babies. We had no idea she was a pregnant doe!.Nobody in the state of Florida had room with the resources to take any of them. We even called as far North as Georgia with no joy. Wild cargo was the one and only place that had the room and resources to take them in and give them to good families that actually care and give them the chance that they need. We would recommend this store to anyone for any of your pet needs don't hesitate. These people care about all animals and clearly have a good operation going on over here. 💯

The second generation owners of wild cargo have taken this business over the top they have knowledge they have experience and a love for what they do you could not get a better selection or a more knowledgeable staff. Owners and managers are all family. I've known this business for over 20 years, so happy that Aaron and Hillary have a thriving business as well as a lovely family and home life

The best pet store ever! They have a fantastic assortment of small animals, reptiles, supplies, and foods. They accept exotic pet surrenders, ensure their health, and re-home them. They carry a large number of live reptile feeders, vitamins, and basically anything you could need to care for your exotic pet. Plus, they're locally owned and operated by some of the most caring and well educated exotic pet experts around. I've been a customer for two decades, and I'd never dream of going anywhere else for my pet's supplies. They're simply the best!

My wife and I took a few guinea pigs to them so they could be better taken care of and they were brought in to meet a bunch of new friends immediately. We spent some additional time looking for supplies for our fish tank and they were extremely helpful and friendly when we were looking. Highly recommend checking this place out for any exotic animals you need to take care of.

This is the best feed and pet store! The employees are family oriented and so knowledgeable! I have bought chickens and feed here for the past 4 years. Recently I came in and my credit card fell out of my purse and they were nice enough to hold it for me and contact me right away! Highly recommended!
