50 Fathoms Pet Shop,

4426 Trenton Street, Metairie, LA 70006

"Best pet store in the New Orleans area. We drive 30 miles to get to them. They have been incredibly helpful and informative. Any issues we had, they resolved and then some. I cannot thank Cassie, Nick, and Tori enough for their help getting us set up for our Asian Water Monitor. They truly care about the animals and the owners. They absolutely deserve the support of us pet owners. Thank you for your help. We will 100% be back for more."

"We got our bearded dragon there. They helped us out so much because we didn't know near enough about having a reptile. All their recommendations have been spot on. Incredibly knowledgeable and caring staff/family."

"Love this place. Been a fan since veterans location. I use to catch a ride from 9th ward by bus or car in high school just to talk to owner.( before internet.). Now I'm older n driving and grew larger like they have. So i bring my daughter who loves snakes like daddy. She learns from a other young female behind the counter who teach her. The people here have so much knowledge and love of reptiles."

"I love 50 Fathoms! They always have everything I need and the staff is very helpful. Krysta helped me get set up for my first snake today - she was so knowledgeable and friendly, I learned a lot from her. I have an aquatic turtle that I also purchased from 50 Fathoms last year, and she’s doing great - hands down, one of my favorite shops!"

"I searched for a couple of weeks for a baby Hedgehog. Calling breeders and pet stores. Finally found some at 50 Fathoms Pet Store. The day we went it was storming and we drove from BR just to get our new furbaby. The staff were friendly. All the animals looked well cared for. They were knowledgeable not just about supplies but also the temperament of the Hedgehog and assisted us in picking out our Orlagh Millicent. She is super sweet, so cute and has a big personality. So glad we decided to take the drive. 5/25/23 - update on our sweet Hedgehog. She had 4 babies. What a surpise. Unbeknownst to us, she must have just gotten pregnant right before we adopted her. Momma and babies are doing well."
