Meet the animals
We have a great range of different animals, we have no favourites and love the fact that they each have their own personality
Michael
Meet Michael! He is our first Kane Toad. He came to us as a re-home in 2024 and has settled in really quickly. He is nocturnal so we don't get a chance to see him exploring his enclosure very much. We're looking forward to getting to know his personality more
(Available for encounters)
Blue
Blue is our Green Iguana. She is about 8 years old and found her forever home in August 2022.
Her previous owner couldn't look after her so we took her in to give her a wonderful new life with us.
When she first came to stay she was an extremely defensive girl (as most Iguanas can be).
She was in a very small enclosure for her size while a new one was being built. She did not like to be touched, handled or it seemed even looked at. She would strike at the glass door with her very powerful tail and sometimes headbutt it too.
It took a long time to gain her trust and to trust her ourselves but today she is a very happy girl.
These days she enjoys lounging on her log above her very own swimming pool and absolutely loves eating her dinner - especially if it contains her favourite banana dessert.
She loves getting out and looking through the living room window, adores being stroked on the top of her head and enjoys having her picture taken in a selfie.
(Family pet only)
Happy & May
Happy (top pic) is our adorable 7 year old male California King Snake.
He came to us in December 2019 after his previous owner could no longer look after him. He has a very nice personality which is unusual for this type of snake
Can anyone guess why his name is Happy???
Clue! - Take a look at the top of his head.

May on the other hand is a handful. She is very defensive and tries to eat everything (including her water) She is also approx. 7 years old and came to us in July 2022 after being rescued.

Buttercup
Buttercup is our Albino Boa and came to us in June 2023 after the previous owners didn't want her anymore. A lot of people get snakes and don't realise just how big they become and how much room and attention they require.
Buttercup is approx. 7 years and is a Boa Constrictor measuring 8ft long.
She has the most friendly and docile attitude. She loves to come out and slither around on the floor. She is enjoying life in one of our massive handmade enclosures. She does like to curl up in a ball and chill out during the day and becomes active during the night.
(Available for encounters)
Thanos
Thanos is our other Boa constrictor. He is about 5 years old and came to us after he was dumped outside a shop. He has a serious attitude and is always in a bad mood. He loves staying in his water bowl and will always eat at meal times.

Lizzie
Lizzie is our newest arrival, coming to us only in May of 2024. She is a beautiful girl and aging well at about 10 years old. She is obsessed with food and could eat all day.

Charlie
Meet our 18-month-old baby boy. He came to us as a tiny baby and has grown up into a wonderful bearded dragon.
He loves eating locusts, salad and chilling out watching the world go by.
(Available for encounters)
Pablo
Pablo is our first Tegu and came to us as a baby. He was very shy when he first arrived but is slowly coming out of his shell more and more. When he gets a bit older I'm sure he will make a great Tegu coming out on events with us. He loves to eat his dog food and likes burying the front of his hide with the substrate :)
He has a lot of fun exploring his new 6ft enclosure and will enjoy an event bigger one when he gets older and larger.
(Soon available for encounters)
Dave
Dave is our Male Horsefield tortoise. He is about 11 years old and is such a character. He came to us after we re-homed him in January 2020 after his owner couldn't have him anymore. He was known to be a bit of a bully to his siblings.
Every day he thinks he can try and escape his viv and he is the fastest Tortoise I've ever seen. He will walk in one direction and when you pick him up and turn him around, he will go straight back to where he came from.
(Available for encounters - depending on location)
Betty
Betty was new to us when she came in March 2024. Her previous owner couldn't look after her anymore and so she found a new home with us.
She took some time to settle in, but now spends her days munching on salad and walking around her 6ft enclosure.
She is a very sweet lady.

Gaffa
Meet Gaffa! He is our Bull snake. He came to us after we rescued him on June 2023, we think he was about a year old when we got him.
He was rescued after he got himself caught up in gaffa tape. Once he went into shed a couple of times, the sticky mess was in the distant past and his skin was good as new again.
He has a vocal personality :) As soon as you open his viv he becomes quite defensive and hissy, but once he's out, he becomes a perfectly sweet little boy.

Tony
Our Royal Python - Tony came to us as a baby back in April 2016. He has been with us the longest. Although he generally likes to keep himself to himself he is a very calm and lovely boy who loves his cuddles.

Penny
Penny is our sweet girl who we rescued back in June 2023. When we first took her in there was a possibility that she was gravid - but this turned out to be false. She has settled in very well here, and is a very inquisitive and friendly Royal python. Her colours also make her stunning.
(Available for encounters)
Hugo
Hugo is our other Burmese python. At about 5 years old, he is also a very friendly animal. Sometimes he acts like a grumpy teenager when he just wants to be left alone but most of the time he loves to come out and explore the surroundings like the others. Hugo came to us in September 2023 after someone abandoned him outside a shop and left him in the cold in a tiny 3ft vivarium. He settled in very well and is enjoying all the space he has in his new home.

Waffle
Waffle is our biggest Albino Burmese Python and measures in at about 10ft long. We took her in after the RSPCA rescued her from somewhere where she couldn't be cared for anymore. She is the friendliest girl and loves to get out and about and explore. She is about 5 years old so she has plenty of time to show off her amazing colours.
(Available for encounters)
Phillis
This is Phillis! She is our false water cobra and still a baby at 8-9 months measuring approximately 18inchs long. We took her in as a baby in the middle of 2024 and has a wonderful personality on her. She is still very young so we are still getting to know her and can't wait for her personality to really shine through.
(Only available for training)
Larry
Larry has a very interesting story behind him. We got a message to see if we could collect a toad that had arrived in someone's baggage having come all the way back from Thailand. Larry is a Asian Java Toad and seems to be settling in quite nicely.
(Available for training)
Nugget
Nugget is our new baby Tenrec. They are mammals originally from Madagascar.
Nugget is our beautiful baby girl (or boy) When they are very young you cannot accurately determine if they are male or female - this can be done when they are a bit older.
She is very similar looking to a hedgehog, but mostly similar to the moles instead. The difference between the two is that the tenrec are a lot smaller. They also have spines that cover most of their body but are a lot less prominent than hedgehogs.
