Happy World Reptile Day! 🌍🐢

Reptiles are everywhere and play an important role in the ecosystems they inhabit. As pets, it is just as important to keep them fit and healthy as in the wild; our Turtle & Terrapin Complete Food is scientifically developed to meet the nutritional requirements of all turtles and terrapins.

Celebrate Reptile Awareness Day and learn more about our scaly friends by visiting in Lincolnshire, who provided us with this great video! You could also visit a museum to find out more about the history of modern-day reptiles and their dinosaur ancestors.

Whilst Catfish Month is originally about catching and eating catfish, we prefer to care for them.

Fascinating creatures with a unique appearance, Catfish are primarily bottom-dwelling fish, they search for food buried in the substrate using their barbels, which are packed with taste buds – they actually have over 100,000 taste buds located all over their bodies.

King British Catfish Pellets are a sinking, complete food for all types of catfish and algae eaters: https://www.kingbritish.co.uk/product/king-british-catfish-pellet-food

is used to educate people about dolphins and how they help protect the oceans 🐬 🌊

Dolphins are important to the ecosystem; they control populations of fishes and squids and keep the balance of the ecosystem.

They are incredibly intelligent mammals, as well as being wonderfully sociable, and are related to porpoises and whales. There are around 40 different species of dolphins, ranging in size from 4 feet to 30 feet.

Share any other interesting facts you have about dolphins with us in the comments! 👇

We are truly saddened to learn of the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

We will remember her as the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth’s constant rock, seeing us all through times and change, both good and bad. As an animal lover, she was even closer to our hearts.

We send our thoughts and condolences to King Charles III and The Royal Family.

The National Turtle Sanctuary’s new Turtle Pond at Lincolnshire Wildlife Park is officially open!

Members of the King British team spent four days over the last two months helping to construct a pond that will not only provide enrichment for the turtles, but also provide a safe space for the growing number of turtles being rescued by the sanctuary.

The new pond was officially opened by the Deputy Lieutenant of Lincolnshire on Monday 13th June and will be home to over 500 rescue turtles.

The The National Turtle Sanctuary was created to support the growing need for re-homing unwanted and abandoned turtles. The charity, which relies on donations from the public, also supports owners who, due to the complex nature of caring for turtles, are no longer able to care for their pets.

is of course really just a reminder to make sure it’s done; carrying out a 10% water change each week is ideal.

A clean aquarium is essential to keeping your aquatic friends healthy. Captive fish live in a completely closed environment and are entirely dependent on their surrounding water. The water in the aquarium not only enables fish to breathe but also provides their only means of sourcing food, warmth, oxygen and access to medication. It is estimated that 90% of deaths in ornamental fish are caused by poor water quality.*(OATA 2019)

Happy ! 🐠 🐢

For most pet owners, National Pet Day is every day! We all recognise how much love and joy animals bring to our lives, and we sure let our pets know how much we appreciate them.

Use today as yet another excuse to spoil your fish or reptile with their favourite treat, or perhaps introduce a new ornament or bog wood to their environment.

Does your pet have a favourite hiding hole? We’d love to know in the comments below – don’t forget to share any photos you may have!

Are you thinking of becoming a turtle owner? Are you considering a Map Turtle ? Andy from The National Turtle Sanctuary tells us all about these lively turtles, and the important things you need to know before adding one to your family. #mapturtles #nationalturtlesanctuary #turtlekeeping

Turtles are well known for their shells, with many species having colourful or patterned shells, such as the Diamondback Terrapin or Painted Turtle. Keeping a turtle’s shell in good condition relies on many things, and one is access to UVA and UVB light. In our next video, Andy from The National Turtle Sanctuary explains in more detail why UVA and UVB light is so important for turtles and terrapins, and how you can make sure they’re getting the right amount. #nationalturtlesanctuary #turtles #turtlelighting
