About Us

V.I.P Reptiles is a family based hobby of keeping and breeding reptiles. We pride ourselves on our customer service as well as the quality of the reptiles we produce.

We are private breeders of Corn snakes, Leopard geckos and Water Dragons and hope in the next year to include Royal pythons and Crested Geckos to that list.

We have been involved with reptiles for 11 years now and for 8 years of the 11 we have been keeping and breeding our own collection. My husband only had a little experience with reptiles until we started our own collection 8 years ago. We are lucky enough to have 2 young sons who are also reptile mad and have been involved with them from birth really. It has got to the point where our 5 year old can tell you what requirements a snake has and how to meet these in a captive environment. A budding herpetologist I'm sure. Our younger sons interests are more of the amphibian kind and even has his own frog tank.

My self and my husband have been members of the FBH for 2 years now and I have been a member of the BHS for 2 years. We have joined PRAS this year as a family.

I have a Foundation and Advanced Certificate in Herpetology both of which I received good grading (merit and distinction respectively), both of which I attained though the Proteus Reptile Trust, I also have a National Diploma in Animal Care from Sparsholt College.

Our future aims are to continue producing quality reptiles and hopefully add some new species to our collection as well as to do some further herpetology courses when they become available. Our aim for this site is to provide keepers or prospective keepers with some information on certain species of reptile as well as offering quality reptiles for them to purchase.

In the past we have done school visits as well as visits to local charities offering activities to school children during the Holidays. We hope to continue to do this and if you would like more information about us coming and doing a presentation then don't hesitate to get in contact. In the meantime you can look on the testimonials page to see some feedback from one such visit.
