Record keeping is the best way to keep track of your reptile's health.
By making note of what you are feeding and when, the weight of the animal as well as temperatures and UV exposure you can be on top of any changes that may cause concern. You could also take this along info to vet trips so they can have an insight into how they are being cared for or even if you're on holiday and someone needs to pet sit!

Feel free to screenshot and use this for your Bearded Dragons! 🦎❤

🦎 Happy Reptile Awareness Day! 🐍

Today, we celebrate our incredible scaly friends and raise awareness about the important role reptiles play in our world. From desert-dwelling lizards to rainforest-dwelling snakes, reptiles come in an amazing variety of shapes, sizes, and colours and they have unique characteristics that make them fascinating!

🌍 Did You Know?

🟢Reptiles are ectothermic (cold-blooded), meaning they rely on their environment to regulate their body temperature.
🟢Some species of reptiles, like the tortoise, can live over 100 years!
🟢Snakes and lizards shed their skin as they grow. It’s their way of renewing and protecting their body.
🟢Reptiles are vital to many ecosystems, helping to control insect and rodent populations, and serving as prey for larger animals.

💡 How You Can Help Reptiles:

🟢Respect their natural habitats by supporting conservation efforts through donating to charity and supporting local conservation efforts.
🟢Learn proper care techniques before bringing a reptile into your home. It’s important to know what your new pet needs to thrive!
🟢Spread awareness about the unique needs of reptiles and the importance of preserving their environments.

Let’s make Reptile Awareness Day a chance to celebrate, learn, and protect these amazing animals! 🦎🌿

Alligator Snapping Turtles now available!

We have two Alligator Snapping Turtles which have just finished their quarantine, these are an interesting species from North America which can grow up to 100 cm!

We'd like these to go to an experienced home because they can be dangerous to keep.

Chinese Water Dragons now available!

This is not a species that we see often anymore. They require a large arboreal forest set-up so they have lots of room to climb around and exercise, with time they are very good to handle as well.

Take a look at the 3 we have available below 👇👇:

Did you know that Marsupial Frogs earned their name because of the pouch on their backs?

The pouch is a specialised structure on the female's back, used to carry and protect the developing eggs and tadpoles.

We now have four Crocodile Skinks available. These guys make great additions to bio-active setups, you'll often find them hiding among bits of wood or leaf litter, but once they are out are very easy to hold. 🦎🍂
