Polly the Python
Polly is a beautiful, docile and friendly snake. She is a Royal python that would normally be found in sub-saharan Africa. It is believed their name was inspired by ancient royalty including Cleopatra who wore these beautiful snakes as jewellery. Polly flicks her tongue to help her smell and survey her environment.
Monty Python
Another beautiful royal python! However Monty is not fully grown yet so is a lot smaller than Polly. Royal pythons are also called ball pythons as they curl up into a tight ball position if they feel frightened.
Ant & Dec the Hissing Cockroaches
These hissers would normally be found on the forest floors of Madagascar where it is warm and wet. They make fantastic pets and like to be handled. Males have horns on their shell which they use in battles with other males! They hiss by blowing air out of their breathing holes to warn off predators and to communicate with others in their colony.
Bruce the Bearded Dragon
Bruce has spiny reptilian scales which include a ‘beard’ of spikes under his chin that can puff up depending on his mood. Bruce loves to chill on his hammock in the day and chase crickets. He also will bang on his glass doors when he wants to come out to explore!
Gizmo the Crested Gecko
Gizmo is super cute and loves to jump! He has special pads on his feet which allow him to climb smooth walls. You would normally find crested geckos in the rainforests of New Caledonia, a group of islands off the coast of Australia
Leo the Leopard Gecko
Leo is a very beautiful lizard with his big eyes and a smile from ear to ear! He is very placid and likes to walk slowly across gentle hands. Normally Leopard geckos are found in the desert regions of the middle east.
Log & Leaf the Giant Spiny Stick Insects
These are huge and are more like branches than sticks! They are fascinating to watch and are very easy to look after. They would normally be found in the rainforests of Papua New Guinea.
Pablo & Pedro the Chinchillas
These adorable chinchillas are super soft due to their very thick fur. Their specialised fur helps them handle the cold temperatures of the Andes mountains in South America where they normally live. Pablo & Pedro are brothers and love time out of their cage to play!
