Bearded dragons.
CB May 2025

We have an array of morphs vivid in colour that photos just don’t do them justice, in store currently all looking to come live with their new families. These absolute adorable creatures have derpy personalities that everyone comments on.

Natures dustbins that eat both live food and leafy greens (also known as omnivores) these guys will also eat scrambled eggs (without milk).

These powerhouses are brilliant for bringing a slice of nature into any home without the stress and long haul of travelling across the world like visiting Australia without even having to leave your home.

These beauties require a 4x2x2 wooden vivarium. With suitable heat source and thermostat to regulate the temperature of the Australian Rocky’s where these can be found. They require ample UVB to mimic that which they’d absorb in nature on a light cycle (12 hours on 12 hours off) along with suitable substrates and decor to mimic their natural behaviours.

We can offer full setups and even payment plans too making bringing your new pet home less hassle on the purse strings.

Sad news in the reptile industry today, we would like to send our expressed condolences to all who knew and worked with a legend in the hobby. Rest in peace Darren

Dear friends and colleagues, it is with profound sadness that we must today report that Darren has lost his battle with cancer. As many people know, Darren has been very ill for a long time, yet he has consistently worked throughout despite being consumed with pain and discomfort.

Never seeking sympathy and with barely a complaint (just a stubborn streak a mile wide and not wanting to let people down), the tenacity with which Darren has fought cancer and other complications with health over the past 3 years has been nothing short of astounding - leaving family and friends in awe of the amount of fight still left in him.

Darren passed away surrounded by his wonderful son and his precious mother. Darren held on for them to say goodbye and then drifted peacefully away.

We are heartbroken, but we are also deeply grateful for the time we had, he will be missed dreadfully by all those who loved him..
Please bear with us in store as we come to grips with this devastating news & join us by adding a post of love and admiration for our captain, Darren Biggs
