Nice shop however I boarded my 2 reptiles here over the Christmas holidays and unfortunately, both of them have mites. I have never had mites before and only saw I had a mite infestation after taking them back from Webbs so I know they got it there. Additionally, my snake also had a large wound on her neck which I was told may have been caused during travel but I know this is not the case. The shop has good supplies for reptiles and a wide variety but unfortunately I won't board my reptiles here again.

Nice place but unfortunately the woman who owns it is absolutely horrible. Not kid friendly at all. My daughter asked her a simple question about one of her animals and the reply she got from her was just rude. I put down the products I was going to buy and went elsewhere. Shame really as her husband and the rest of the staff are really nice. Won't be returning.

This place is fantastic. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. The animals are really well cared for and there is a huge choice to set up your fish tank or vivarium. Can't rate them highly enough.

When my girl was considering whether to buy a pet or not, we are so suprised that the cashier lady told us to move on if we were for entertainment. Maybe my girl couldn't made up her mind and stay a little bit longer, but please be polite to let us know. Is it necessary to buy something when we enter your shop?If so, please write it in front of your door. Her reply are all lies, i don't want to waste my treasure time to respond. Tell such big lies, Hope her can sleep well! )

Last week my husband messaged Webbs, not expecting a response as it was out of hours, but within 1/2 an hour we had a lovely response and lots of great info. On Saturday we took our daughter into Webbs to find… out about Leopard Geckos. They answered all of my daughters questions as well as ours. They recommended what we should/ could do and advised us on what we would need. We decided there and then to go a head. Within the hour we had the viv all set up and in the back of our car and a little Leo. My daughter loves her Leo that she has named Gomez. We will definitely be returning to get
