Please note if your order contains frozen items this will either be delivered via our own delivery vans or on a before 12 courier service.

Animals

Anyone selling vertebrate pets to the general public is required to have a Pet Shop License issued by their local authority. It is an offense to sell them without this.

We supply mostly captive bred animals sourced from breeders in the UK, EU, or USA. All animals are held in our purpose-built facility and inspected prior to despatch to ensure they are healthy.

The majority of animals we sell are Captive Bred. However, we do sell some wild caught animals, providing their origination is from a sustainable source.

Live animals are carefully packed using methods appropriate to the species. Following this, they are packed inside sturdy outer containers for maximum protection. Please note we only deliver animals in the UK via our own vans.

Royal Pythons can be difficult feeders. We have put together a short video of our top tips.

You can view and download Care Sheets on our website here. Be sure to check back at a later date as we are continually adding new ones!

Live And Frozen Food

This will depend on what type of reptile you have. We stock a wide variety of livefoods and a member of our sales team will be happy to advise you accordingly.

If you refer to our product pages on the website, we offer advice on how best to look after each type of livefood.

As a general rule, the feed being offered to a corn snake should be no wider than one and half times the width of the widest part of the snake.
