The owners Blake and Tamika are lovely helpful people. Reptiles are Blake's hobby and passion and he has a wealth of knowledge. He breeds all of his snakes. Quite often he has feeding sessions, where you can view the procedure.
I recently went in with the idea of purchasing a black and yellow carpet python and vivarium and taking it home that day. However, Blake talked me out of it and told me that this was not the ideal snake for a first time owner. He explained the temperaments of various pythons, suggesting that a Murray Darling would be my best choice.
I did not make a purchase, but if and when I do, I feel confident that I will receive the very best of help with my choice. I am also sure that he would be wonderful with any follow-up help after.
If you are considering purchasing any kind of reptile I would recommend that you visit Reptile City first.

Approximate cost: $895

We were going past and the kids begged to go in, and we spent almost an hour just looking at all the amazing reptiles they had in here, the staff were nice enough to let the kids have a close up feel of some of the smaller lizards and a turtle which they loved!
All we actually purchased was some turtle tank ornaments, more as a momento for the kids, but are considering getting a turtle for Christmas for my teen stepson, and if so this is where we will get it from as the staff really seem to know their reptiles and had some great advise.

I just bought my first python, and knew very little about the care and maintanence with snakes. They health cbecked my python, which ifound out its a "he". Michael was extremely helpful and taught me all that is needed to care for my python. I was even given a chance to handle one of their Big pythons. They showed me how to feed and take good care of my reptile friend. They have a large range of non venomous pets. As well as a huge range of tanks, and enclosures. Reptile food of all varieties is on hand all the time, ranging from baby mice , rats and right up to rabbit.

We have been regular customers of Mike and Jason for about 9yrs. We bought our first snake and 5 lizards from them and haven't looked back.

Always great for info and support. I recommend all new reptile owners to them. Excellent and knowledgeable as they breed their own stock.

They are always happy to chat and we have used them on the few occassions we have had any issues.

Thinking about becoming a Reptile Owner? Go see these guys first and do your research starting with them.

This being a special reptile shop, it is fun looking around in. We have bought lizzards from them, and they are always helpful with advise even years after we have bought them. Nothing is too much trouble.

We bought our 1st snake, a carpet python, as a hatchling from these guys, and later our second, a diamond python about 2yrs old with all the necessary set up n equipment etc. Since we were new to keeping reptiles we had a lot of questions, but i always found more info myself than we seemed to get from them.. attitude seemed to be 'hey, its your problem now.. ', found their prices for accessories rather inflated ($12 for a pet water dish!) for basic vivarium approx 1000Wx450Dx1200H - a plain MDF box, glass doors, heat mat n light - over $700! We still have the carpet python 4yrs later, but the diamond python (cost about $650) died from some unknown 'respiratory disease or infection' within a year.. Now we buy our rats from the local pet store instead of going out of our way to go back there..

Approximate cost: $1700

We bought 2 Bearded Dragons from these guys plus the whole set up too. They gave us a great deal as we bought everything together. They have a wide range of snakes. lizards, turtles, spiders etc and it's always a good place to take (non squeamish) kids for a look at all the different creatures.
They stock all you could need for looking after these unusual pets and are offer free health checks for your scaly friends too. They are very clearly "into" what they do.
