Reptile shops in Northolt/Ruislip/Uxbridge area.

[pjonesa84]

Hello everyone!

I'm moving to London soon and want to add to my collection so could do with knowing of any good reptile shops in the Northolt/Ruislip area, or even Uxbridge area or as close to these as possible.
Any ideas anyone??

Cheers

Phil.

judds pet centre...on uxbridge road...seems ok...always has lots of live food from what i can tell...better than pets at home and my local pet store so does for me

i personally live in rayners lane so its not the easiest place for me to get to
also i'm quite impressed with the way they are kept, for example, the juvie beardies are separated, they are kept on tile, and they have alot of baby snakes that they breed themselves, same with the dragons, bread themselves.

The pet shop on Uxbridge road is terrible, would not touch it with a barge pole. 30 hatchling royals in a feaces covered 2 fooot viv with burn marks from unguarded bulb last time I was in there.

Now a good pet shop is Amyezoo in Bovingdon, I go there quite often so your more than welcome to come with me, Waterlife over at Heathrow is good, so is TC reptiles in Staines.

Water life in heathrow. Agreed with judds it's a nightmare, iv seen snakes that have partially shead and have been in that state for a long time, bad housing conditions.

Wow, i must admit i only had a little look when i went in there, but it seemed ok at first glance...guess if i ever go there again i'll have to look more closely

sorry for the wrong advice to OP btw

so amyezoo and waterlife are good? sounds like its worth the trip! i must admit if though if judds is terrible...then i'm not suprised the pet store near me was shut down last week...that was really bad in my view, never cleaned out the tanks, always sand, too big food given, bad lighting, falling apart vivs...i guess anything looks better than that

i need to find a better shop!

just to add, the shop near me also had a dead leopard gecko in one of the vivs when i went in there before it got shut down, the owner apparently "likes to find them before people in the shop do". as i said, most look alot better than that did

Cheers guys. I think I'll be staying well away from this judds place! I'll definately check out the other two though. Might catch you in there some time 'abandonallhope'?! I'll be looking for a BTS but from baby/juvenile age...great Lizards.

Thanks again.

Yeah as mentioned Water life in harrow is pretty decent from what i saw, havent bought anything from there as of yet but did have a browse and looked pretty good and living in northolt means it aint too far ;p

[pjonesa84]

Cool cheers. I'll have to get the map out or do the old sat nav thing because I don't know where Harrow is compared to Northolt, or any other place for that matter!
