Cold Blooded Reptile Centre

"The staff here are so amazing I had to give them a good review. I work for a small mammals vet practice so reptiles are not our speciality. Two terrapins were dumped at our practice and we had no facilities to care for them. We needed to urgently find them a safe place to stay. We called a few places with no success, but then we called these guys and they were more than happy to help. When I got to the shop it was packed. They're clearly a very busy place but they still found the time to help rescue some strays in need. I spoke to some customers while I was there and they spoke very highly of the staff that worked there and I can see why."

"Would give a hundred stars if I could. I lost my flat to a fire recently, and desperately needed two vivariums after my lizards were rescued from their destroyed tanks. The staff at Cold Blooded were so understanding, kind and helpful, they sorted me two lovely tanks for a more than reasonable price. They told me everything I needed to know about setting the tanks up, these guys are basically walking encyclopedias regarding reptiles! My lizards love their new homes, and I am so grateful I found this shop it was a total God send. Thank you so much, Cold Blooded!"

"This place is amazing! The staff here are some of the most nicest people you will meet. Just bought a beardie here and I couldn’t me happy. Got a whole set up for such a good price, was told everything I need to know. Will 100% be going back."

"I have been to many pet shops over the years, with lots of them being exotic pet shops so I consider myself fairly good at spotting a good one. I didn’t have to look too hard to work out that Cold Blooded was definitely one of the good ones. The shop itself is small but it is totally packed to the rafters with everything you may need for your reptile, fish, amphibian or invertebrate. There is a huge range of livestock and there are even more behind the scenes so if you are looking for something then do ask. All of the animals are clearly well looked after and healthy. Perhaps the best part of Cold Blooded is the staff. Paul is fantastic, he has a true passion for reptiles and knows so much about them, but is more than happy to admit when he doesn’t know something. He knows many of his customers well and so when they walk in Paul will know whether he has new stock that that customer might be interested in. Brad is also brilliant and very knowledgeable and between the two of them, they have been able to answer any questions that I have. The shop can be busy, regulars will often hang around chatting but people are friendly and it isn’t intimidating. We love going to Cold Blooded, it is our absolute favourite reptile shop. Just be aware that they only take cash."
