Good afternoon everyone! We are open from 10am to 5:30pm today and we would love to see some friendly faces so pop on down!

Here we have our adoring Luci, nervous and unique in every right. We hear many people say that they look very similar to a skink and honestly we do see it.

Luci grows in confidence, albeit slowly, everyday. They are reaching new levels of trust with us and we respect the strives that Luci is making. They are truly captivating our hearts at Reptilia!

Piper, one of the gorgeous hognoses in our rescue, popped out to say hi this morning. This girl has an absolutely lovely temperament and is often out and about on her travels! She is currently looking for a home, so if you are at all interested, bob us a message and we can have a chat 🐍

Open 10am-5:30pm today! 💚

Good afternoon everyone, we are open from 10am-5:30pm today!

Here is our lovely Western Hognose snake named Piper, staring longingly for her meal. Some say she reminds them of James Howell as she digs around the dirt looking for what I can only assume is lost riches (she won't find any, we already checked)

Also, we have the wonderful Do**us. As the name implies, he has an intellect similar to a locust and is appropriately named Do**us due to his first feed, where he said nay to the rat, and bit himself.

Both these stunning snakes are on the look out for their new forever home, and we are taking inquiries on them as well! Feel free to message!

Meet Leela 🖤💛

Leela is an absolutely gorgeous and very sweet leopard gecko who recently came to our rescue. Being previously rescued and nursed back to health by a lovely family, Leela does have a few scrapes, bumps and a dropped tail, but she doesn't let it hold her back. We are currently giving her warm soaks to help her with the stuck shed on her toes but she's getting on swimmingly besides that. She's great for handling and is pretty chill so would be perfect for a first time keeper or a family wanting to welcome a scaly friend into the fray.

If you're interested in providing Leela her forever home, please drop us a message or call into the shop.

All adoptions require enclosure checks and husbandry questions may be asked. We sell starter kits so that you can give little Leela the best start in her new home.

❗Adopted ❗

Now for something a little different... 🕷️🕸️

We have this unsexed juvenile Catalina Big B*stard tarantula (Sericopelma sp. "Santa Catalina") available for adoption. A recently discovered species, this one is pretty chill all things considered. They are known for being hair flickers, so I'd keep that in mind if you're considering adding them to your collection, but despite some defiance when trying to rehouse this one, they have been overall lovely.

We are open to adopting them with the enclosure they are currently in, but this would be an extra cost on top of the adoption fee.

£10 adoption fee in, enclosure checks will be required if not taken home in set-up.

If you are interested, drop us a message and we can have a chat! 💚

Everyone meet Barbara🦜

Barb is a beautiful 3-4 year old budgie who has recently come in to the rescue! She’s a little hand shy but with some time and effort she would make a lovely companion!

If you have an interest in birds and are looking to add a new member to your family, Barbara may be the one for you!

Let us know if you think Barb would be a good fit for you! Enclosure checks required!
