Then I wouldnt bother. They have 1 panther chameleon and 1 crestie that I personally wouldnt buy because of the price. The main thing they sell is beardies, beardies, beardies.
Micro-Climes in Diddngton have a lot more to offer and they aren't that much further away - Micro-climes Home Page

Repti-grow reptile list
Link to a thread in the shop classifieds.
If you want any more info on the shop pm Herp666 as he works there.

Would the Japense Koi Company in Henlow be too far for you to go? As they are the best IMO round this way.

Completely agree on the price, lol.

The best shop for getting equipment & stuff is 888Reptiles in Ramsey (there prices are brilliant IMO), but they dont have the biggest lizard selection in their shop, so probably not the best place to go for what you want. They do have geckos, tegu, frilled dragons and the like but no chams. (Triple 8 Reptiles UK Reptile Shop)

Yeah, they have only been there a couple of months and really havent got the place looking the way is should yet.

Repti Grow is in Diddington, second left after buckdun roundabout, A1 southbound. Go down a little lane once off the A1 and it is like the second building on your right. I drove straight past it the first time I went there, lol.
