Isle of wight Reptile Rehoming Service

26/03/2024

I have no photos, but a lady messaged me last week looking for a good home for her 15 year old marginated tortoise named shoey. He needs a new home as sadly the new owner lives somewhere that now floods on a regular basis and feels it's no longer safe for him. He will be coming with his big hibernation box and house. If interested please message me. I would have posted earlier in the week, but it's been a busy one.

Ok guys
A beautiful male cornsnake is in need for a new home. He is approximately 9 years old. He will come with everything he will need to keep him happy and thriving. If you are interested with everything please message or comment and we will get back to you. He will make a fantastic beginner snake. He is based in Shanklin. There is a fee from the new home. If there are any issues please let us know and we will help in any way we can.

According to Facebook we are selling animals and there for will be having our fb page shutdown. 🙄
A rehoming fee is not selling animals, plus our fee didn't come to us, but to wight vipers for the animals feed and equipment. (Which by the way barely covered a thing, it mostly came from our own pockets to do this.) If they shut down our page, please bare with and we will try and set up another. Our number is 07881 075800 please keep our number as it may be our only way to still help you guys out. We have helped around 300 animals in total, from reptiles, to fish, to birds, you name it and we've helped it. The animals we've taken in have been kept in the wrong enclosures, severe 3rd degree burns, starvation and dehydration. We wont see an animal struggle, its not us, and any vet fees, cremation, medication, enclosures, equipment and anything else needed came out of our own pockets. We do apologise for the inconvenience of it all, but you've gotta love the Facebook police.

Wight Vipers - Exotic Pets and Supplies shared from their page. We totally agree that animals should not be bought for Christmas. As like any other animal they are for life not just for Christmas. Also please please do your research as we ourselves have had to take animals in with serious conditions caused by the wrong form of care. Reptiles are the easiest of all animals to look after as long as you k ow what you are doing. Atleast there is no regular grooming involved ( maybe a little bit of skin peeling which by the way is an amazing feeling) plus no walks required unless it's in the blistering hight of summer with a harness across your lawn.
We are always here never the less for anyone requiring advise and support. We can't recommend wight vipers enough. Please go and talk to the amazing people there. Damien and kirsty are super friendly and easy to talk to.
Thank you for reading my super long post, but i feel it is needed this time of year.

Arlo - arlo is such a cute little character and such a cuddle butt! She loves coming out to explore and loves her snuggles🥰 (will sleep in my dressing gown with me all day if she could😂) I got her in 2018 when she was a baby so she is 5 years old. She loves her grub (I feed them locus and waxworms, however they have eaten cockroaches before) she’s always being nosey out of her viv and I’d love for someone to give her all the attention she wants and needs! She really is a sweetheart🥰

Gavin -
Gavin is a sweetie, however he does prefer to be handled less, I got him in 2018 aswell but I’m pretty sure he was a few months old when I got him so around 5/6 years old. He likes an occasional head rub but I haven’t tried to take him out for awhile, he loves to give a lick every now and again but is a grumpy old man and likes his own company! He LOVES his food and almost takes my fingers off🤣 (I hand feed them as it takes them ages to catch it otherwise and I don’t like leaving live food in their vivs) with regular handling (that I can’t provide) he would love his snuggles too!🥰

Both gorgeous leopard geckos looking for a new forever home. Please message if interested. Thank you.

Almost forgot this little guy, but yesterday we helped this little fella find his new forever home. He is a gorgeous bearded dragon, that just loved to chill on my chest and climbed all over my bed.
Just remember even though we are not Currently able to take the animals into our home till we find them a new home, we are still able to help find your animals new homes by posting any information and pictures you have to our page and we can message the potential new and current owners and also collect and deliver for you.
Message with any questions and we will be more than happy to help where we can. Sadly we are looking at roughly 2 years till we can take in again as vikki is waiting on an operation to get her back on her feet.
Thank you all for remaining patient while we conka these challenges.

31/10/2023

Ok guys, we've recieved a message kindly asking if we could help look for a fantastic new home for this little guy. If you think you could help please message us and we will get the owner to contact you. Thank you.

Valkyrie is actually a male (we’d already named her before we found that out - oops). She’s orange/red hypo trans and is absolutely gorgeous. She’s very independent and proud, docile but not massively cuddly. We just want a home that will appreciate her as she deserves!
She’s just over a year old, she did turn out to have faecal parasites when we first got her (found on routine faecal screening) and underwent treatment for this. Never had any other issues and last faecal was all good.

There is a 7 year old bearded dragon looking for his forever home. Any interest please message me.

01/09/2023

Please take a look on my last post as there is a lady with a crested gecko needing rehoming. If anyone is interested please get in touch.
Comment from the owners family member.
Hi, I am sorry to hear that you are struggling. I have I crested gecko, it was my Mother's but she is having to move and can't keep the gecko. It has a vivarium, of course. Is it possible for you to sound around for a new home for her? It would be much appreciated.

Ok guys, I do apologise for the long wait. Health hadn't been great.
We have 3 snakes remaining. 2 cornsnakes and a hognose. Any interest please message me.
I'm also so sorry I can't take any more animals in at the moment as my health has now worsened. After a long recovery from a big operation im waiting for im hopeful I would beable todo this again.
However for the time being I would like to still help as much as I can.
What I propose is that if you need help with rehoming send me a description with photos and I can post them on here. Also I will still be available for any advice if needed.
Again sorry for such a long wait, and inconvenience.

I am sorry to say the Isle of wight Reptile Rehoming Service is to close if anyone can take what we have and give them loving homes then please contact us.

24/07/2023

So i am posting this for someone who is in desperate need to find new homes for these 5 cheeky little geckos. If any interest please let us know and we can message their owner to let them know before we provide a mobile number for you to contact them.

1st pic - Name: Drogon, Age: unknown, S*x: Male

2nd pic - Name: Viserian, Age: unknown, S*x: Female

3rd pic - Name: Sansa, Age: 5yrs, S*x: Female

4th pic - Name: Arya, Age: 5yrs, S*x: Female

5th pic - Name: Barbra, Age: 5yrs, S*x: Female

The 3 young geckos are sisters, Drogon is the dad and is still very active and typical male gecko (territorial - has his own house on the right side of the tank)
Viserian has a milky eye but never effected her, she does need help with feeding times occasionally. She's always been slim, no matter how much she eats (wax worms, meelworms, crickets or locus).
They're all man handled, mostly eat crickets and occasionally locus, mostly chilled but love a run around when I have the time.

Viserian is definitely social and loves attention.
Sansa likes to be nosey and cuddles.
Arya hides and doesn't socialise.
Drogon is territorial but doesn't mind a cuddle.
Barbra is active, runs around a lot and loves attention.

One of our recent rescues that we had taken in.
Humphrey is his name, and he is doing marvellously in his new forever home.
This gorgeous little noodle (Royal Python) came in with severe 3rd degree burns full length of his body. He was a bit on the moody side, but during and after his treatment he became a real little baby. Thank you to his new owner for sending us these fantastic photos of him doing so well. 🐍 ❤️

Here is our amazing rick, handling a gorgeous female jaguar carpet python into her new home. She was laid back and rather chilled, but super happy she didn't have to stay in the car for long. The welfare of the animals that come in come first before anything else, and we are self funding in what we do. Any money charged for our rehoming fee is payed at wight vipers so 100% of what comes in is guaranteed to go back into the food and equipment we need for these amazing creatures. We are expecting 3 more corn snakes to be joining us soon. We currently have 3 corns and 2 young royal pythons available. Any questions please message us and we will get back to you as soon as we can.

I started rescuing and rehoming reptile and exotics 2 years ago to help as many as I can. It's been amazing and I'm so greatful to all who has taken on and helped those to have a second chance in life. Sadly I was informed by my consultant last week that I will now need surgery every 8 weeks for the foreseeable. This had made things a little different for us. Now this doesn't mean I will be unable to help, but it will limit what we can take in. We still have space for a small amount of snakes and other lizards, we have plenty of spaces for tortoise. What I may propose is we can take photos, and information of the animals that need new homes and post on our page for you. None of this has been decided just yet, but if I start to struggle with the regular operations it may be an idea to be put in place in the future. We will always still be available to give advise and will still try to help all those who need it in any which way we can. When things start to settle in the future we can then start to take on again, but again this is just an idea for the time being. We still have a female jaguar carpet python, 2 x 1 year old royal python, 1 male royal python who has third degree burns, but all healed, and 3 corn snakes. If interested please get in touch.

Say hello to our new addition to our family. A variable King Snake.
Because of her Russian Eagle on her head(stamp). We've decided to name her Odintsova after the rock band Imperial Age lead singer Jane Odintsova .
We will be getting a male later when it comes in. We'll name him Aor.
