Best shop for me, Jurrasic Reps in whitchurch Bristol.

Ryan is a top guy from the moment you enter the door you feel at home, and he is ready to answer any questions as well as have a good natter on the subject of Reps have a coffee and talk over all experiences and projects hes got on the go, you never feel that awkward and need to leave as someone is always popping in just after you willing to have a chat.

those retics are going to be real stunners LoL

All the stock is taken care off top quality, the range is amazing Never have I seen a stockist sell frilled lizards as an example and letting me(the customer) handle various other animals. The stock is ever changing which keeps it fresh for customers popping in, and makes your mouth water haha.

I picked up my viv and various bits and peices from ryan including my male beardie who is in great condition great colours.

Plus its close to my house haha

for me the sheer diversity and friendliness of crystal palace means thats the best in my opinion! people say its expensive, but i have found them to be very reasonable when compared to other shops around london. the sheer amount of snakes is mind boggling!

second has got to be cold blooded, for the interesting displays. have been there a few times though, and some prices are extortionate!

third is jungle phase, i have only been there once, but very friendly staff, very knowledgeable.

and ameyzoo is also good. once you get to know mark, he is a nice - if arrogant - guy. slightly steep prices, but very knowledgeable, and the odd rarity comes up every now and then!

Jurassic Reps is certainly worth a visit if you are in this neck of the woods, only opened recently, but Ryans shop is coming along nicely and he is a lovely guy too. It is clear that Ryan is trying is best to do everthing he can to make is a great shop. It was clean and attractive when I visited, with some very nice stock.

Yep, defo Jurassic Reps. For someone whose new to the business side of reptile keeping, Ryan's doing a fantastic job. The shop's always clean and tidy and there's new stock every time I visit. And he makes a lovely cuppa tea

Oh, and the reptiles all seem really happy too. Especially Bob and Barberella the iggies. He handles them all as much as necessary, and he's even managed to tame down the nasty nile monitor since opening the shop in November. It's refreshing to see a shop owner whose primary concern is the welfare of his animals.

I would say the living rain forest in Rhyl, nothing in Newcastle comes anywhere near

Yes, things have been chaotic during the refit at Coast to Coast! Behind the scenes we have been installing new breeding areas, an all year round hibernaculum and a new animal facility for Zoo Logic. Still work in progress, but coming on nicely. On the shop floor we decided to have the whole electrical system replaced ready for the fitting of the new fibre glass vivaria, new larger enclosures for the likes of the Caiman, new counter area, extended showroom etc etc. Work will hopefully all be finished in about 8 weeks time, perhaps early March. The new counter has now been installed, and the extension to the showroom started, next jobs include installing the new vivs! Luckily most of the work is now done after the shop shuts. Roll on March!
