The Reptile Centre in northampton! I was there yesterday as part of my uni assignment (had to assess a leopard gecko enclosure, and not allowed to use my own) and I was gobsmaked at how GOOD the place was!!! fantastic set-ups, everyone in the right enclosures, huge range of animals, brilliant staff, great bits and bobs, equipments, vits, lotions&potions.

I thoroughly recomend this place to anyone in the northampton or surounding area!!

they also have a dog grooming parlour and sell hand reared parrots

It's always good to hear about a good shop rather than the bad ones

Yeah, makes a nice change to get some positive feedback about somewhere and to hear of a place taking proper care of their animals.

[repkid]

I agree. It's always good to be a bit more positive sometimes.

[kirsten]

i know it's anthony and lois hook who run/own it, my mates uncle as it turned out, lol. i can't remember what she said her grans name was, i know she sadi her gran had/has beardies, so it might have been. the parrot shop is in the same place but just round the corridor?

[Amoa123]

ah place im thinking of the parrot shop is just next door infact when you go into the back room were the vivs are kept you can see all the parrots

[kirsten]

it's the same place run by the same people, the parrots are in like a conservatory in the back of the shop, with tons of toys hung up. yes with all the vivs and a bookshelf in the corridor, i think we are talking about the same place.

the place is, the reptile centre/the parrot centre/dog grooming parlour. its all under one rook and all on the same website. anthony and lois hook own it all

[Amoa123]
