so i was going through the shopping list for my new royal and relised when shopping online you just cant tell the products size or qaulity. as a solution my mum suggested taking an over 1 hour trip just to get there and kinda making the day of it and get some lunch and do the shopping in the actual store. but i dont want to wast the fuel money or the time and effort to get there then finding out everythings so much more expencive. any one know??

That takes me back, I tried to keep a slow worms years back but they always escaped, mind you a box in the garden shed wasn't particularly secure



So are slow worms easy to keep? Are they just like snakes??

The last time we went it had only been open for a couple of weeks and not completed, the majority of the snakes on show were royals, I know from speaking with them they were hoping to open fully in the following week or so. I know they now sell but I don't know exactly what stock is available at any given time. As said you will not be disappointed and perhaps mum will get the bug

well, i guess i could sell some stuff to make more money to spend on another snake..... what types of snakes have they got - dependant on the price, you may see some pics of my new royal and possably something else. this is your fault!! im getting all excited now!!

yeah, but thats what i mean by making a day of it, and id really like to go just so i can have a look at all that they have while i go by instead of having to search for just one thing over the internet if that make sense

it does tell you on site. its cheaper to buy from in store but their delivery is 3.99. which you have to figure out if thats cheaper than paying petrol for the hr there then hr back.

A colleague of mine with a Royal uses SPS online a fair bit - product size is definitely something she has had "issues" with...in that the website doesn't tell you how big things are. She purchased a log/stump fairly cheaply, which turned out to be too big for her 3ft viv!! It did look amazing though.

It tells you on the site the price in store and online etc

Well it used to...
