SNAKES’N’ADDERS IS MOVING!!!

Sheffield is the destination for Snakes’N’Adders next challenge. Over the last seven years Leeds’ Premier Reptile Centre has gone from strength to strength, cementing its position on most peoples “must visit” list. An opportunity has been seen to try to develop the existing and potential reptile keeping community in South Yorkshire & Derbyshire. I myself am a Sheffield lad and look forward to returning to Sheffield as a place of work, like many of you I have a young family whom I do not see enough of travelling to and from the current shop. As well as having a far shorter and less stressful drive in the morning I can enjoy a far more fulfilling family life. I am sure this will come as welcome news to many of you who may have travelled from South Yorkshire & Derbyshire in the past to our shop.

Today the leases were signed and agreed meaning we should hopefully be open in around 8 weeks (exact date to be confirmed). I cannot tell you how excited I am to take on this new challenge and hope to see a great many of you at the new shop when it opens.

“So, What’s going on?”

· Over 50 Brand new factory-built silver vivaria, extensively decorated, bulb guarded and thermostatically controlled.
· Easily one of the widest quality livestock ranges in the North. All of which are competitively priced.
· Improved storage for our ever-increasing dry goods range and increased aisle width for you to enjoy our animals in comfort.
· A combined reptile breeding experience of over 30 years to answer all your questions and offer free advice.

There will be an opening day B.B.Q which will be for a limited number of friends to Snakes’N’Adders once the opening day is confirmed.

The shop will be open for normal trading to all other customers visiting us for the first time.

Keep your eyes on the Sheffield Star for advertisements about discount vouchers to be redeemed in store.

The website will keep you informed as of next week as to developments for the new shop in the ‘latest news’ page.

Snakes’N’Adders will run as normal until one day before the grand opening of Snakes’N’Adders-Sheffield. Every effort will be made to keep the existing shop to the standard to which our clientele are accustomed. Plus look forward to regular updates regarding our already extensive stock lists.


Cheers Chaz & Paul.

well i'm sure there is enough trade to go around. - the more shops there are the more attractive sheffield is to the nationwide reptile keeping community. I look forward to seeing you all in the near future.

No i dont have any adult male sunglows -sorry.

And no we dont have any b&w tegus at the moment but we usually get them three times a year. so bear with us.

My friend lived just a few doors down from your Leeds shop, I went in there a couple of times this year and last. Looks like you won't be too far from where I'll be when I move to Sheffield as well, your opening day is my moving day :D

I went in yesterday (Saturday) & I must agree with Knighthawk all the Viv's were clean and safe. The shop was packed but Chaz still made time to talk to everyone, We are going back later today to collect the Jungle Carpet Python we bought yesterday.

We went in today, and were very impressed. I like the thermostat and one pet per enclosure policies because too many people get these pets and don't really know what they're doing. Chaz and Paul give great advice, and have the animals best interests as priority over profit. Also got a great quote for a double stack viv and cabinet - one third cheaper than quoted elsewhere. We shall return!!!:love:
