I've got some christmas money that I desperately want to a buy a snake with. Because the shop that I previously bought my other snakes from has now shut I am now stuck. I live in Bridlington and unfortunately all we have is Pets At Home. Grrr. Anyway if anyone could tell me some decent snake shops I would be grateful!
Thanks Emmerz x

I wouldn't let p@H put you off. They have some lovely morphs and as they're all the same price you can get a real bargain

p@h do seem to get their morphs wrong quite a lot, a few people have bought 'a carolina' and come back with a hypo or something more I would be on the look out for health issues though, thoroughly check for mites etc as many of their other animals are sold with health issues in my experience.

However personally I would be reluctant to pay nearly £50 for a normal hatchling when you can get them for £10-£15 from a breeder. You can get hatchlings delivered to your home using a reptile courier, I bought a hatchling from procorns (who I would definitely recommend) and had him delivered which cost £35. It would still be a similar price to a normal hatchling from p@h but then it would have come from a reliable source, you would know the gender and hets and you wouldn't be supporting p@h .

the p@h in brid is quite limited in their reptile selection we had a look when we was out that way, there was a shop we called in to at hull called hull pets and gardens didn't have chance to look at the reps though as they were getting ready to shut for the day so not sure what they are like. theres tails and scales in hull but again i havn't been there so dont know what it is like, next time am over that way i plan on having a look.

Thanks everyone, like Lupi Lou said they are quite limited and only tend to stock amels, (which I already have) I am just looking for something different maybe not even a corn I don't know aha. Thanks Lupi Lou, I'll have a look at both that you suggested,
