Family-run reptile shops in the UK
Hello from Jenna, Kyle and family! We run Jungle Reptiles along with our team of reptile enthusiasts.
A bit more about usā¦
We are a family run business specialising in reptile and exotic animal care. We cater towards the dietary requirements of reptiles in the form of live foods, frozen food and dry food as well as all the housing, electrical and species-specific decor you may need for your animals.
Our main goal is to ensure we are constantly educating and keeping ourselves and our customers up to date with the latest advances in reptile keeping. 5-star welfare has always been the main priority within our business and we want to make sure that the animals we keep and sell not only survive within their new homes but also continue to thrive.
We always push for naturalistic and well enriched care, whilst also being sympathetic towards everyoneās financial and personal situations. We provide full specialist setups where we have carefully compiled all the best equipment, whilst still providing budget friendly options. We want to match people with their perfect reptile companions, so coming in and chatting with one of our qualified and friendly staff members is the best way for us to advise on what would suit you best.
We provide a number of services in store, ranging from sexing, nail clipping, holiday boarding, basic health checks, as well as equipment assembly services. We also provide a rehoming service as we understand that situations can change and we want to provide a non-judgement zone to ensure we do the best we can for these animals and get them into new homes.
You can find us in two locations: Bracknell and Iver. We appreciate every customer who has purchased from us, and we want to make sure everyone has the right knowledge and tools needed when buying an animal ā as well as further offering our knowledge and help for the future.
Love from all of us here at The Jungle Reptiles x

I've been keeping reptiles for most of my life and started breeding a lot of the more common species kept today while still keeping and breeding things like Bearded Dragons, Leopard Geckos and boas. I have a very extensive collection of Crested Geckos and really enjoy the huge array of colour mutations the species has to offer. I also keep and breed new Caledonian gecko species, and a fair few leaf tailed geckos (uroplatus). I really enjoy keeping and breeding a lot of the madagascan species too, including the Chameleons and Dumerils boas.
I opened the Jungle Reptiles in Iver in 2007 and since then have opened a shop in Bourne End and now more recently Moss End. Together with my team of reptile enthusiasts we strive to set a good example of how to keep reptiles in captivity for others to see and replicate in naturalistic and bio active enclosures.

From a very young age anything with scales has fascinated me, starting off keeping royal pythons, which led to breeding, which is where my interest grew learning and expanding with genetics.
Since then I have been fortunate enough to work with a wide array of reptiles and amphibians, now specialising in locality colubrids and salamanders.
Most of my time now is spent breeding ICUN listed amphibian species, making sure thereās a plentiful amount within captive care.
I am most proud of my work with Alytes amongst some Central American Ambystoma ssp. I also strive to learn in depth about each species to make sure their husbandry standards mimic wild conditions.
Since joining Jungle Reptiles my love for the commonly kept reptiles has grown even more, and I strive to educate new keepers entering the hobby.

Reptiles and Amphibians come in so many different shapes and sizes from all corners of the earth, many of which are uniquely adapted to live in incredibly harsh environments which has always fascinated me.
From a young age I have had a passionate love for all Geckos and Lizards and I have kept and bred a multitude of different species throughout the years. Nowadays I have a particular interest in continuing to establish Chinese Crocodile Lizards in captivity and working with Monitor Lizard species.
There are constantly new things to learn and research as our knowledge expands about the behaviours, natural habitat and captive care of these amazing animals. Reptile and Amphibian keeping is a continually evolving hobby that is incredibly exciting to be part of!
