Here are a couple of shots in the shop inside. The stud wall which can be seen in photos 1 and 2 will be removed to give us a open shop space measuring 27ft by 13ft. This is slightly smaller than the existing shop but still enough room for 50+ vivariums and 80 baby boxes. Basically i want to downsize the whole operation - i see other shops expanding expanding expanding and at some point you loose control of the stock and its maintainence. So i am conciensiously going to reduce the stock levels (not necessarily in displayed stock because that volume will remain pretty much the same as the existing Snakes'N'Adder in Leeds - but in the off display animals. At the Leeds shop currently there is 200+ baby snakes being fed,watered and cared for along with the shop stock and this is the bit i want to reign in, its unnecessary) to make mine and the team's workload more managable. To begin with me and Paul (ukmorphs) will be running the shop and quite rightly we want to run a tight ship.

The third picture shows the back room which will become an office with my breeding groups of tokays and a small amount of storage for essentials. Oh my, im goignto have an office - lovely lovely - no more tellings off by the missus for spreading paperwork all over the dining room.





So basically this is the first of no doubt many posts showing how the shop will come together. I hope you find it informative and if you have any questions please ask away.

regards chaz
is that paul i see mashing the tea ,
