my local shop is watermarque in Yeovil, but I only tend to use it for live food tubs, BJ herps (reptilekeeping.com) is about 30mins drive away so I get my frozen food and alot of my equipment from them also most of my snakes have come from them. _________________ Theres nothing right on the left side of my head and nothing left on the right |

Wow time has flown by....doesn't seem like 5 years since The Vivarium went mate
That means its roughly 7/8yrs or more since i was last down there
I used to love visiting Dave Lester's Serpentarium,i can still vividly remember getting a F snow corn (a fairly new morph at the time!) from him in the early 90's.
I still believe Dave was a U.K. pioneer in many ways and would without doubt be a forerunner in todays world, its sad he's not with us anymore.
Sorry for driftin off subject.....These days i mainly use The Snake Shop in Sheffield for my foods etc.

I am lucky, my local shop is Snakes n Adders in Leeds.
A brilliant reptile specialist shop, the staff are skilled at imparting what knowledge you need and there is plenty of stock to see with new ones appearing regularly.
Hats off to Chaz and Matt. _________________ John
